During our travels to Cancun, my wife and I have visited the Santa Fe Café’ on at least four occasions. Located in the Forum by the Sea Plaza, Santa Fe Café’ has joined a large number of other restaurants that offer fine dining. This establishment combines nouveau-Western food and a microbrewery to give the diner a unique experience. The guest/diner is offered a selection of different pastas, sandwiches, desserts, and beers from a fine microbrewery on the premises.
Over a three-year time period during which I have visited the restaurant, the selection of beers that have been offered has been slightly different each time. Bottled beers such as Dos Equis, Corona, and Negra Modelo remain the same, but the beers brewed in the microbrewery are served as the draft beers, and these change on a monthly schedule. Usually the choices from the microbrewery include a nice stout, a lager, a pilsner, and a fruity beer. When my wife and I last dined at the Santa Fe, a beer brewed with peaches added was the special of the month. Such selections give an interesting change of pace for the palate.
Each time that we went to the Santa Fe my wife and I enjoyed a different selection from the menu. We found that ordering the sampler platter of beers (which contains six selections from the microbrewery) gives the opportunity to select the beer that is most pleasant to the taste for future reference. We will return to the Santa Fe Café’ on many occasions in the future because it is such a unique experience in the Cancun area.
