A couple questions -- in Zihua this week

It's not in Ixtapa, but you might consider Amuleto, above Playa La Madera. Incredible view, excellent food and wonderful Margaritas. Plan to go early for the view. Reservations required: 544-6222. Ask for a table in front, so you can enjoy the view. Closed Tuesdays. They keep the front door locked, so you need to ring the bell until someone lets you in.

Another "not Ixtapa" suggestion would be Tentaciones. Raised up high above the bay with great views and service.

You will need to be looking northeast in fairly dark conditions. A complicating factor is the moon. It's up and may give off distracting light. The Mirador above Las Gatas seems to me to be the best bet. But after midnight.

We have perfect conditions here in the dark north woods facing the right directions but we have clouds. Sniff. Sniff.

Hi! A couple questions -- any suggestions locally for watching the Perseids meteor shower in the Zihua area? And any must-visit restaurant spots for an upscale experience in Ixtapa? We have a kiddo with us but she is an experienced restaurant goer. (We've been to Zihua 4 times but never visited Ixtapa)

Another "not Ixtapa" suggestion would be Tentaciones. Raised up high above the bay with great views and service.

"El Faro" in the Pacifica resort Ixtapa, would be the choice of mine for the best upscale event....the view is the BEST!

Take a Taxi..........for a 7:30 reservation and a great sunset!
