New Menu & Service Levels @ Casa Carole

Since May we have introduces a new menu and level of service that has produced rave reviews from our guests this summer.

For breakfast, our houseman Samuel serves fresh squeezed orange juice, a fruit platter, cereal if you wish and your choice of Huevos Ranchero, Huevos Mexicana or Huevos Benedict. Or you can opt for fluffy banana pancakes incorporating real bananas and a cup of banana liqueur! But our guests this summer have voted the new Casa Carole French Toast as “The best we have ever had!”

Our staff now go home at noon to return at 4 pm when Samuel prepares outstanding Margaritas; lime, mango or strawberry, or pina coladas and “Happy Drinks” for the kids. He serves these on the pool deck along with tostadas and guacamole.   He then sets the table while our chef prepares the gourmet meal you have selected from our new menu.

Dinner usually starts with fresh warm cheese bread and the unique salad you have chosen; Seafood Salad, Fruit & Nut Salad, Tropical Salad or Asparagus Salad.

As for entrées, we now offer a total of 21 to choose from. In November, we especially enjoyed the spare ribs that just melted off the bones and the rock lobster with lemon butter. Other seafood options included; fresh red snapper (caught each day by the fishermen right in front of the villa) lightly breaded or an easy-to-fillet whole red snapper if you don’t mind it staring at you accusingly from your plate!

For vegetables we especially enjoyed the green beans, bunched and wrapped in bacon, marinated in soy sauce, topped with butter and then grilled for 15 minutes. We also enjoyed fresh asparagus, carrots and more unique things like Chayote, a kind of squash.

For dessert, among other selections, there was fabulous flan (Mexico’s national desert) apple crisp with ice cream, or Key lime pie to die for.

All of these delectable delights were served by Samuel, who pours the wine you have selected and then takes your order for the meals you will have the next day. If you wish, he can serve coffee and liqueurs on the balcony to top off a fantastic day.

Each day we were presented with the receipts for the food and drink we had ordered to make these gourmet drinks and meals. The costs were surprisingly low. The cost for breakfast, drinks by the pool and a 4-course dinner with wine for 8 adults ranged between 1,200 and 2,000 pesos (the lobster) or from $120 to $175 per day, or about  $15 to $20 per person. This is half the per-person cost at the equivalent five-star restaurants in town. It’s no wonder that most of our clients had almost all of their meals at the villa.

We have posted some of the comments left by our guests this summer in our Guest Book on our website. Here are just a few.
