Cozumel food costs

[ggunn]

is a little outdoor place across from the taxi stand and has the best octopus (pulpo?) tacos for 10 to 15 pesos (about $1.50) that you will ever have.

I'm not kinding, they are really good, especially considering what they cost.

Which taxi stand?

I always get this mixed up but as i recall its on calle 2 between 10th and 15th. El Sitio has a chain link fence for an outer wall and entry door. Plastic tables and chairs.

I'm not familiar with the restaurant but I believe the main taxi depot is on Calle 2 Norte between Ave 10 & 5.

Thats the spot. El-Sitio is right across from the main taxi depot. Lots of locals pick up their lunches there in the morning, thats how we stumbled over it.

If your really bold, you can get the octo prepared in its own ink. Personally i like the ceviche version best.

They have that? All the places I used to get pulpo in su tinta (Capi, Palmeras, Sonora) don't serve it any more. It's one of my fave dishes; have you seen it there recently?

Yes, i was just there two weeks ago. If you like Pulpo, it is a must. You won't be disappointed.

Claro. I almost never eat shrimp on Cozumel. The pulpo, concha, and pescados are all indigenous, but the shrimp probably flew in frozen from Houston.
