Exotic Maya-Carib Cuisine

"The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." I never gave much thought to that saying until several years ago while fishing in Punta Allen. While walking back from a days fishing, I could hear a female chef singing and whistling while preparing dinner in a local restaurant. I thought to myself, "Now there is a person who loves their work!" When I sat down for dinner that night, I was served a magnificent meal prepared by that beautiful, cheerful women - Lupita Argaez Garcia. We were married two years later!

After a life time of experience in both boutique bakeries and upscale restaurants, Chef Lupita now brings her culinary skills to Club Grand Slam, as it's head chef and pastry chef. Drawing on her vast knowledge of regional favorites, Lupita has added her own flair and personal touch, without loosing the essence of Yucatan cuisine.

Ascension Bay Fly Fishing for permit, tarpon, snook, bonefish in Punta Allen, Mexico Everything is prepared with fresh fruits, herbs, vegetables, poultry, and local seafood. Lobster is available in season. You will never leave the table hungry or in awe of Lupita's mastery in the kitchen and eye appealing presentations.

Breakfast always includes fresh squeezed juices, like orange, cantaloupe, and watermelon. Main courses of fresh crepes with compote of pears, apple, and kiwi infused with fresh, native spices are always a huge hit. As is 'Huevos Lupita,' - scrambled eggs with smoked Mexican sausage (chorizo), queso, sweet peepers, onions, and just enough heat to remind you are in Mexico.

Lunch is on the boat with a cooler filled with varied sandwiches of lobster or shrimp salad, smoked ham and cheese, Mexican tuna salad, spicy fried chicken, or client requests. Matched with plenty of assorted sides and water, soft drinks, or beer.

 

After cleaning up from a great days fishing, retire to the shade of the flower garden and partake of the world's best Margaritas or your choice of an ice-cold beverage and treat yourself to Chef Lupita's appetizers. Varied daily with choices of fresh guacamole, salbutes, panuchos, nachos de queso, frijoles rancheros, taquitos, or Mole de Lupita.

Club Grand Slam dinners are served alfresco in the garden, weather permitting, and are quite the experience. You will start with a regional soup such as Sopa de Lima, Lentejas, or Albondigas. Then enjoy fresh, varied daily entries, like whole grilled snapper, lobster in season, Beef Arrachera, Tamales Rojo de Lupita, Enchiladas Verde, or Mole de Pollo. Served with fresh vegitables and homemade tortillas.

Try to save room for desert. Chef Lupita loves to make cakes, cobblers, and pies!

Client Comments

Their service is top rated and when you couple that with the delicious food and good fly fishing to be had there is no question that Club Grand Slam has no equal.

Gerard B. / Cape Town, South Africa

 

Their beautiful lodge offers very comfortable accommodation with excellent food expertly prepared by chef Lupida !. I am sure we both added 10 pounds to our weight in 10 days ! The lodge offers very good value for money.

The only thing that topped the fishing was Lupita's cooking; words can do no justice. Thanks again Lupita and Greg!!!

Club Grand Slam proprietors Greg and Lupita were beyond wonderful to us on our vacation to Punta Allen. And, please, do yourself a favor when you stay at Club Grand Slam; include meals in the package! Lupita is an amazing cook and the portions are huge. Her cuisine is fresh and Mayan; and the garden where meals are served is absolutely lovely.

Non-Fishers / Alaska

 

Lupita cooked generous portions of the most delicious authentic Mexican food for breakfast and dinner. There was always variety and lots of TLC. Meals were served in their private garden just around the corner from our room. She also prepared us sack lunches for the day of fishing. We never went hungry.
