<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Does anyone have any update on Letys restaurant, opening and location? Thx</p>
</blockquote><p>Great news for Letys. She emailed me last night. She said she should be open October 8th tomorrow. She was pretty consumed with family emergencies and getting ready to open but looks like all is good. I’m waiting for her to tell me if the location is where we all have read on message board. What a great story if we all get the word out and make her a bigger success than before. I’ll be sending a  message to TripAdvisor also.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Don't think there was ever a remarkable amount of locals patronizing Lety's.  Her original clientele were driven by her brother's who are local fishing captains. Other fishing captain friends of her brother's also brought gringo customers.  The fact that her food is fantastic helped too.</p>
<p>In each of her three La Noria locations she was driven out by greedy landlords who thought they needed more of her profit than they deserved. Similarly her sister Chendo had the same problem, although Olga now has a nice location down the street from the Inglesia in centro.</p>
<p>Last season most of Lety's business was from locals at her little taco stand she had in front of her restaurant. Her landlord threw her out this past June.</p>
<p>The tourist fishing business is dead here for the past 16 months thanks to Covid.  In my opinion the reality that Covid is just another virus like all the rest of the big name flu's and people don't decide that it's just something more to adapt to, then Zihua as a norte americano destination is dead. Wearing masks and disinfecting my hands is just simply getting old.  Any idiot who refuses to vaccinate deserves their fate.  Maybe we should bring back Smallpox, Chickenpox, Measles and Polio........oh wait, a vaccine stopped those!</p>
<p>All the tourist driven shops, restaurants and fishing are dying on the vine.  Local Mexican tourists don't spend like gringo's.  Testament to that is watching Mexican tourists crowd the beaches all summer and rarely spend much money at the businesses on the playa's.</p>
<p>This post is based on my observations here in Zihua and the conversations I have had with friends and locals.  As to covid that is just my opinion.</p>

</blockquote><p>That's probably why she's having such a hard time staying open in the same place. Winning over locals can make all the difference.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think we should all meet at Letys when she opens and have a few cold ones. Also nice to see Lety is getting this much attention..hopefully this exposure will get word of mouth out to locals, taxi drivers ,and others on this thread. Let’s give her a grand opening and make her feel appreciated and loved. What a great thing we could do for her.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Why do you think this distinction matters? The cross streets are listed, that’s all anyone needs.</p>
</blockquote><p>Knowing the colonia helps locals, if not residents familiar with their names, especially when the street name doesn't ring a bell. Darío is one of our older and more important colonias.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Being an ex cab driver myself from Reno and Lake Tahoe areas, cabbies will know the address and pass it on quickly to the rest. Lety, will rely on past customers and local businesses and hotels to get the word out on new location. We’ve been going to ixtapa and Z for 17 years and she has been a staple in the community and deserves to remain.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lety's new location is definitely not going to draw any casual foot traffic. Although it is only 1 block of the main drag, P.del Palmar. It is going to be taxi drivers who will be delivering the customers.  Most Taxi drivers will not know where she has moved to.  It will take a lot of word of mouth from faithful customers to help her succeed in her new location.  Once again she is &quot;upstairs&quot;.  I wish her well.</p>
