"Cetli is just outside the city and the tourist hustle and bustle, located along the road that leads to the ruins of Cobà. Inside, white walls are enlivened by colorful paintings and antiques, while wood tables and chairs set a rustic tone. Chef Claudia Perez Rivas has fashioned a truly Mayan experience here, where the generous and tasty dishes are as colorful as the art decorating the walls. Meat and fish are the main inspiration, as in dishes like istak, a fish fillet cooked in seawater and doused with a thick, not-too-sweet white almond mole with a touch of parsley, dark chocolate sauce and sesame seeds. Nimbe, a vanilla and chocolate pancake filled with ice cream, is rich and delightful." - Michelin Inspector
