San Miguel de Allende

While in Guanajuato, we decided to take a day trip to San Miguel de Allende since it's a short trip away (about 1 hour).  I absolutely loved San Miguel. There are so many cute restaurants, shops, cafes, and the entire town is so well kept with colorful buildings. My favorite spots in San Miguel include Lavanda cafe and Ten Ten Pie. Lavanda is a cute cafe with an outdoor garden in the middle of it. Ten Ten Pie is a great place to have lunch and sit outside. I would recommend getting the Molcajete (green chorizo, nopales - cactus, tasajo meat, and cheese all in a green sauce as seen in the picture). San Miguel is a very walkable town with so many cute shops and pictures to snap! I visited Mixta, a really awesome store that has a beautiful garden in the middle and carries jewelry, clothes, and unique pieces of household goods. I ended up with too many goodies to bring back including beautiful shot glasses for tequila! San Miguel should definitely be added to the list of places to see when in Mexico!
