Upon completion of our dinner the first night in Tulum, we opted to try out another Meghan Markle TIG recommendation, Gitano. Known for being a Tulum hotspot/night club type atmosphere, we didn’t expect to stay long. But since we were in the middle of the week in off-season, we actually got a prime spot by the disco ball and ended up staying for a few drinks.
Here’s the review:
- Pros: Great atmosphere, Disco ball(!) and good music
- Cons: A bit cliché and can be less relaxing once the whole lot of tourists descends on the only real nightclub scene on more secluded beachfront roads
- Must Try: Jungle Fever (cocktail with mezcal, chili, lime, cilantro)
- Know Before You Go: If you ask nicely, you can sit anywhere you like (dancefloor couches included) even if you’re only having a cocktail
(Stardust cocktail – MEZCAL, DARK RUM, PINEAPPLE, PAPAYA, HOUSE COCONUT CREAM)
Til Next Time,
Michael
