Hey, it's Marina, travel experta. Today we're going to be talking about restaurants in Xela, part one, Esquina Asiatica. Are you guys ready for an adventure? Let's begin. So Xela is a tiny little zone one.
Xela is a big city, but zone one, the main area that most likely you'll be staying in is pretty small. So everything is walking, walkable, and the restaurants. The majority of the restaurants are located in this area. So make sure to go and listen to the full podcast about Xela, getting around Xela and what to do in Xela and stuff like that. Right now, I'm going to be doing a review about one of the more popular restaurants called Esquina Asiatica, which is obviously Asian style food.
So the coolest part about this restaurant is the location. It's located upstairs on the second floor, but you get to it and it's kind of a little bit almost clandestine, and you have to ring this little bell that they let you in to the upstairs and then they close the door behind you. Most likely for safety measures, but I'm not sure. It might just be part of the theme of it. The restaurant is upstairs and it is truly adorable.
Like the way it is decorated. It's just a really cute restaurant. The food itself, they say that they can do everything vegan, vegetarian, probably closer to vegetarian, which isn't actually true. The majority of the food can certainly be made vegetarian because they're adding in the tofu, although they don't take out like oyster sauces and stuff like that. The portions are quite large.
They're actually really large. But overall, the food is very mediocre. Yeah, I would definitely not say it's one of the best restaurants there. It's a cute experience. Xela overall is such a small town, and all the restaurants are really small, so it's really hard to find a really great one, although we did find a really good one.
So make sure to go and listen to the other Xela restaurant podcast to get a good idea of one that we really thought was delicious. But overall, the decor of the place is probably more interesting and the atmosphere than anything else. Other than that, it's okay. It's satisfying to get your tofu. They do have chicken stuff.
They have the basic Asian foods. It's an Asian mix because they have from Thailand, from China. They have different formats and whatnot. And again, if you guys have been there, I would love to hear your feedback on it. If you enjoyed this episode, please leave me a review and remember to make every day adventure.
