If you know where the Log Cabin is on the road to Ixtapa, it's just to the left. Hard to spot, they don't have much of a sign....but they do have great tongue tacos.....
Tongue tacos? Why have I never been told this? Are they salty, spicey? I want to try them now.

It's too late to try them today....but they are neither salty or spicy, they are just boiled, you add your own spice....

And on Sunday you can get lengua en etafado, which I think is better, at Dona Licha....

Tongue in any of its manifestations is overrated. IMHO.
