Billy and Akaisha Kaderli
During our visit to
Ensenada,
we walked the length of La Calle Primera (1st Street) several times. Also called
Adolfo Lopez Mateos, 1st Street is a tourism spot due to it's many curios
shops, restaurants, hotels, bars and popular clubs such as
Hussong's
Cantina.
This street is very busy
and filled with tourists.
Map showing Bar El Patio
You can find Bar El Patio in the upper center
of this map.
We ate here a couple of times and used this
location in order to take Uber or Didi driving service elsewhere. Since it is a
very famous location, it was easy to find a driver and for the driver to find
us.
Once we had a ride from here to
i-petra
restaurant at the Oeno Wine Lodge, and another time we had the driver take
us to the dock area to eat at Muelle 3, a fantastic seafood restaurant.
Rides within town ran from 40Pesos to 70
Pesos, from $2 - $3.50USD.
Lovely outdoor seating
Isn't this beautiful?
With a wide open view, the tourist traffic
walked between the tables at the street and the tables right at the restaurant's
front door.
Beautiful weather, decent service, clean area
of town and sometimes there was live street music. A great place to have a beer,
a smoothie, a coffee or an appetizer if a full meal isn't what you are looking
for.
Restaurants lined up one after another
All of these restaurants are known by the
tourists, many of whom come from the cruise ships in Ensenada's
deep water
harbor. But we met locals eating here too.
The area is very festive and attractive.
Today's typical young ones on their
devices
These young people were waiting for their
orders to arrive. No point in speaking to anyone at the table when you can check
your social media or read the news on your phone. It's far more interesting than
getting to know the person sitting next to you, don't you think? (!!)
Occasionally, one of them would look up and
share what they were reading and make a comment perhaps.
A new way of living.
Alone together.
Yummy mango smoothie
One of my favorite things to drink when we
are in the tropics is a mango smoothie. It really hits the spot and I love the
flavor of this yellow-orange fruit. Growing up in the Midwestern United States,
we didn't have anything like this in the grocery stores!
After all these years, palm trees and fruit
grown in the tropical zones are still magical to me.
Price?
About $2.50USD. What a deal!
2 flavors of chicken wings
As you know, chicken wings are very popular
and these were quite good.
We ordered a plate of wings in two flavors,
BBQ and Hot. Both were delicious!
Our bill for 2
Heineken's were about $2.50 each and our
wings were about $12USD for the plate.
Our bill came to just over $20USD before tip.
Would we recommend El Patio?
Yes!
