The owner, Russell, is from the USA and well-known in Playa Del Carmen. Excellent and authentic Chicago-style deep dish pizza. A bit expensive for pizza in Mexico, but worth the price!

Essentials

Excellent large Mexican grocery store. Exceptional bakery and good fruits and vegetables section. Also good selection of wines. Would recommend WalMart for non-food items though.

Recommended grocery store for non-food items as they have better quality and variety of non-food items than Mega. Lines are often long though and store is not as nice as WalMarts in the USA.

Sightseeing

Definitely worth exploring. The ruins are interesting and the Mayans also had great taste in that they put their buildings on a beautiful cliff with a gorgeous beach below it. Bring your swimsuit.

Probably the most famous aspect of Playa Del Carmen. This is a long pedestrian street with shops, restaurants, and bars. The tourist portion of it goes for approx. 2 miles. Fun for people watching.

Shopping

The main shopping mall in the area. Nothing special in the way of shopping, but the movie theater is nice and you can see current movies at great prices.
