Tintoque

If you only dine out in one fine establishment in Vallarta, make it Tintoque. Chef Joel Ornelas dazzles when it comes to creative, beautiful reimaginings of classic flavors. An amuse-bouche arrives, sitting on a sunflower. The pork belly skin is impeccably crisp. The ceviche is embraced by a wafer-thin sliver of nopal (cactus). Truly a meal to remember.
