Today’s spotlight is on the Luna Lounge located in Bucerias a stone’s throw away from The Shamrock. Let talk about RIBS. Baby Back Ribs. I love good ribs, but where do you go for great ribs in Mexico?
We found a place last night right here in Bucerias. The Luna Lounge. Go figure. I had noticed the week or two previous that they had a Monday night special for 2 for 1 ribs and tucked than info away in my virtual Dave Ramsey wallet. (2x1 is part of my gazelle intensity program)
Mi hermano, Pedro, and I arrived 5 minutes before their happy hour ended and snagged a couple of cold Dos Equis Ambers for 15 pesos each. ($1.15 each). The dinner began with some warm bread and infused butter, nice. Then came 4 types of salads: pasta, cabbage, celery, and potato. Next the ribs and baked potato. I was not expecting such a generous portion. Sweet. Great taste. Very tender. Nice sauce. Perfect. But the best was the price: 80 pesos for the entire meal. ($6.00) And there were enough leftovers for another meal. I can highly recommend this place.
I had spoken earlier in the week to Hugh, the owner, and he said that they usually sell out of the ribs quickly. 140 orders were sold in the first hour or so. Get there early! Like 5pm. Or just before, as their happy hour runs from 2-5. I speak from experience, as last week Pete and I arrived a bit too late.

Bon Appetite!
