Last night Sita and I dined in Pierrot (Justo Sierra 2355) which was billed as a French restaurant, and I have to say the food there is fantastic. It nudges out El Sacromonte of my top 3 Guadalajara restaurants (La Matera and La I Latina still stand). As per usual it was pretty much empty at 8 o’clockish because only gringos eat at that time on a Friday night. I saw a stack of reservations for 10 pm which is a more normal time to eat round these parts.<\/p>\n
The prices are relatively high end, most main dishes are around the 150 peso mark, but they’re worth every centavo… There’s a good list of wines from Chile, Spain and Mexico and the menu’s in French, then Spanish then English. We ordered starters of Fromage (Quesos, Cheeses) and Jamón Serrano (“Special Ham” apparently) which were definitely specially imported. One of the cheeses was a fierce little number but there was also brie, gouda and goat cheese. Then the main dishes arrived. I went for the steak, almost ordering it T\u00e9rmino Azul, but chickening out at the last minute and going for rojo, rare, instead, and young Sita plumped for the lomo (pork). They brought it and transferred it to the plate and then piled veggies and spuds all over it. It was probably one of the best meals I’ve had in this fair city. Sita’s was none too shabby neither.<\/p>\n
If you come to visit us in Gwod and we don’t take you there then you can rightly take offence…<\/p>\n
Thank you very much, Sally and Martin, for sponsoring last night’s gluttony. Extremely appreciated, many thanks…
