"Bustling Tulum is the perfect spot for Chef Hinostroza's second restaurant, Mestixa. This intimate spot beckons with its simple but welcoming ambience. Asian accents, including a snake mural and traditional lighting, hint at what's to come on this highly original Asian-Mexican fusion menu. Order the bao, deliciously stuffed with pickled pear, hoja santa, pickled cucumber and cashew macha sauce. Few dishes define this cuisine as well as the birria ramen, made with egg noodles, beef shank, cascabel chili, and tamarind. It's an excellent mix of textures, colors and flavors, and generously sized. Finally, a waffle taco is tucked with yuzu parfait, dried plum and caramelized white chocolate for a sweet sendoff." - Michelin Inspector
