Cholula


Healthy-eating delights in dishes made from organic, locally sourced ingredients. The seasonal vegetarian menu includes elaborate salads (mango, fig and amaranth), goat's cheese tostadas (crispy tortillas), chilaquiles (avocado, corn chips and salsa), bean burgers and pesto pasta alongside house-made bread. The terracotta-roofed courtyard recalls a relaxing farmhouse and attracts vegetarians and omnivores alike.
