Huevos Motuleños

                                                                   Huevos Motuleños
This tantalizing strictly Yucatecan breakfast creation built of toasted tortillas covered with refried black beans, fried eggs, tangy tomato sauce, green peas, chopped ham and grated fresh cheese and often accompanied by French bread to soak up the sauce, has become a national favorite. To finish, sweet fully ripened plantains (a type of banana) fried to a golden brown are served.


The originator of Motuleños is the Restaurant Siqueff and they are located on Calle 60 in the center just south of the Hotel Hyatt. Excellent quality and lovely ambiance are made even better by the fact that they are bicycle friendly.

TIKAL RESTAURANT, THE BREAKFAST PLACE

The Tikal Restaurant is definitely bicycle friendly and they let us park our bikes inside the lobby while we dine.
Located in Mérida’s city center on Calle 57 between 56 and 58 on the north side of the street it is positively well located.
This is not the Ritz, but it is clean, efficient, friendly and wholesome featuring wonderful local egg dishes, honest food at honest prices and they keep your coffee cup full, something rare in Mérida.
Jane and I are undeniably regular customers here and you will be too, treated like a part of the family upon your second visit.
Huevos a la Mexicana, is one of their many breakfast package deals that includes juice, your main dish, tortillas or bread and coffee. The hot-sauce in the black bowl is habenero and packs a punch like on other, so use discretion and try just one drop to start.
