Langosta por la Laguna


Lobster by the lagoon. Need I say more? No, but I will anyways. One weekend, we took a bus up the coast of Michoacán coast, along Highway 200. We got off the highway and walked to the small beach town of Maruata. There we stayed in cabañas and ate amazing seafood. Every "restaurant" had shrimp and fish on the menu, and thats usually it. This one restaurant featured freshly caught lobster for half the price of a cheap seafood dive in the States. The average lobster cost between 120-150 pesos (12-15 dollars). But, since I don´t get such a luxury very often, I decided to order la más grande. this babe here was one of the largest lobster I had ever seen, and cost me 200 pesos. It was worth every centavo.
