I like it cold as a c-cktail. They serve them in San Felipe and they are great.

Wouldn't the hot version be Seven Seas Soup? It's good too on cold days.




Haven't had a bad trip yet....

Campechana


Don,

Your photo is exquisite! It brought back fabulous memories of Campechana c-cktels (also known as "Vuelve a la Vida") I have known and loved from Guaymas to Culiacan to Esquinapa on the Pacific mainland coast.

I suggest you just pay that mariscos vendor the $8 dollars he's asking and enjoy! The hassle you will go through with that octopus and the callo de hacha and the oysters is just not worth the trouble, not to mention how much it will cost to assemble all those goodies.

It's worth every penny you pay for it.......:dudette:

Especially that briny seafood broth they slosh into the c-cktel at the end to make it all float. The best!! :bounce:

I like the campenchana at Moyeyo's, close to the El Moro Hotel.

I think Bajadogs is cheating with a photo of a shrimp c-cktail. I don't see all the other goodies in it.:rolleyes:

Moyeyo's is just beyond the El Moro Hotel as you head towards Marina Palmira from town.

Campechana


It originated in Campeche.......

Hence, the term campechana (no "n")

But by any other name it is sublime!!
