Fonda Flor - Puerto Vallarta

This Fonda Flor was in Old Town just off Insurgentes on Carranza. Haven’t ever seen the airport location. It was packed full of locals always a good sign. We had tender carne asada and fish tacos with papas. Both were fantastic, served with beans and rice of course, and a cup of so so chicken noodle soup (Campbell’s? as a starter and fresh tortillas. Ice cold Jamaica water was free, and each entree was a whopping 55 pesos. My husband ordered a Coca Light, and we watched our server run around the corner to the minimart to buy it. That added another 20 pesos to the bill. So for 130 pesos and a 30 peso tip we got lunch for around $8.

Waiting for an international flight I tried updating my computer. Two months prior this was a free option at the pizza stand. Now you must go to the bar and buy a drink in order to access the Internet. Pure greed! Why? You'll never change your image with such an attitude.

I don't like getting ripped off at airports, the prices are always double or triple the regular rates. I still had some pesos left in my pocket and wanted to have lunch before flying back to LAX. Across the street from the airport are a few local restaurants that serve really good food at low low prices. Just walk across the pedestrian bridge and your there. We always check in early to our flights and I had plenty of time to eat a good meal and have a Mexican beer before departure. I also wanted to sit and relax at the airport and have a beer but the bar wanted $5 USD for one beer, forget it, walk across the street.
