Mon Oct 19 18:44:49 -0700 2009 33082 toitoi 1 5116653 La Palapa or next door at Amapas Sunset are great places to spend the day. I'm not a fan of Cafe des Artistes but lots of people rave. As alternatives in the same class with a view (no view at Cafe des Artistes) there is the La Palapa sister restaurant Vista Grill http://www.vistagrill.com/ or the beautiful Hacienda San Angel. http://haciendasanangel.com/menu.htm Tue Oct 20 06:18:34 -0700 2009 5115910 112335 mexivilla 2 5116683 Appreciate your suggestions, mexivilla, but neither menu gave me a WOW! I'm an LA resident; to many similarities. Maybe I should llip to El Arrayan?

I adore Cafe des Artistes but also if you want a fantastic view go to El Panorama in the Siesta Suites Hotel (take a cab as the walk is gruesome, we stayed at the hotel once and walked it every day and it nearly killed us!). But the restaurant is awesome. Wed Oct 21 07:54:34 -0700 2009 5115910 66022 bronwen 2 5120579 Thanks bronwen. I checked out El Panorama's menu in the Siests, think I stick with El Arrayan.
