Funky little restaurant right around the corner that specializes in dishes with different moles. The patron is very friendly and proud of his mother's recipes.

This is my favorite healthy place to eat. They make a beautiful salad to your specifications. Each day they have a couple of fresh squeezed beverage concoctions (along the lines of combinations like mint, cucumber, pineapple). They have sandwiches, soups, and there is usually several delicious dessert options (I LOVED the homemade almond cake).

I love this place because it is open until very late when most of the other restaurants close and it has a great menu. I loved their guacamole and their platter of quesadillas. It is a relaxing place to enjoy a meal.

This Bakery is a few paces away from condo and has many tempting items to enjoy. Since baked goods are my downfall I try to look the other way and walk very quickly since I have to pass by all the time.

Great Mediterranean restaurant in the Versalles neighborhood. Desserta are great, but you can also walk over one block to the Au Croissant French Bakery to grab a dessert:-)

Coffee

The proprietor, Claire Guarniere, is very friendly and helpful. My sister and I both purchased bronze sculptures here. The gallery has so many paintings and sculptures it is almost like going to a museum. There is a courtyard full of sculptures. The prices are much lower than you would encounter in the U.S.

Essentials

What can I say? It is Costco and they have basically all of the same things as in the U.S. There is also a very big grocery store somewhat like Whole Foods right next to it for convenient one stop shopping.
