Restaurant Week 2020
Is it just me, or do most people like food? How about mouthwatering food that makes your tummy applaud and your tastebuds scream, “more!” What if we threw in the fact it would be offered in first rate restaurants, created by expert chefs, and delivered by professional servers? AND the price would be deeply discounted. Sounds like a dream but it’s real and it’s here. The 16th annual Restaurant Week will be celebrated in many restaurants throughout Vallarta-Nayarit, September 15 to October 10. See? I told you it was dreamy…the “week” part is actually twenty-six days of deliciousness, so start filling your calendars with reservations.
We all know this area has long been popular as a culinary destination featuring cultural flavours. More cities around the globe are celebrating gastronomy, highlighting their local and fresh ingredients by organizing annual “festivals”, giving new or existing restaurateurs an opportunity to offer their fare to eager diners.
This year, of the nearly fifty participating restaurants, there is only one establishment located in Bucerias…Culi’s Restaurant and Bar.
Offered at the special price of 399 pesos, Culi’s prix fixe menu is:
| APPETIZERS & SALADS Homemade Sausage Stuffed Portobello Mushroom – mozzarella cheese, arugula garlic-basil cream and balsamic reduction OR Culi’s Octopus Carpaccio Rosemary-mint aioli – citrus-caper-white wine vinaigrette and parmesan cheese OR Caprese Salad – organic tomato, mozzarella, basil, balsamic vinegar and olive oil MAIN COURSES Agave Glazed Pork Tenderloin with sautéed vegetables and cauliflower purée OR Catch of the Day with rosemary potatoes and sautéed vegetables OR Vegetarian Fettuccine with grilled portobello mushroom, carrots, poblano chile and zucchini DESSERTS Culi’s Key Lime Pie OR Belgian Chocolate Mousse OR Vanilla Flan Contact Culi’s at restaurantculi@hotmail.com, 322 159 6929, or find them on Facebook.
