Casa Hidalgo

En una visita de trabajo exprés pude conocer este lugar.
Me senté en el balcón que da una vista hermosa al Palacio de Cortés, aunque hacía mucho mucho calor ese día en Cuernavaca, el balcón tenía una sombra excelente brindada por un árbol hermoso del zócalo, y llegaba una brisa de aire que refrescaba.
Aunque considero difícil que en algún lugar preparen los clamatos ricos, aquí decidí pedir uno, y me encantó, definitivamente saben como preparar una clamato.
La pasta con camarones que pedí estuvo exquisita, tenía bastantes camarones y verduras, me encantó, el lugar es un poco caro, pero considero que lo vale.

The wife and I walked by this place as we were visiting Cuernavaca and decided to stop for breakfast. So glad we did! As soon as we walked toward a table, two waiters arrived to pull out my wife’s chair and bring menus. I ordered a coffee which was delicious-​something I haven’t said often about the coffee in Mexico. They also brought a plate of four panque, along with butter and strawberry jam. I promptly ate two of these and was ready to settle in for breakfast. My wife ordered sopes, which consisted of four different sopes served on a rectangular board. I ordered a dish called Huevos Cazuela, consisting of a grilled tortilla with frijoles y chorizo, a crumbled queso, fried eggs, avacado and surrounded by a delicious salsa. A plate of four freshly baked rolls were brought with the meal. All were excellent! The view of the Cortez Palace right across the street just added to the authenticity! Try this place if you’re in Cuernavaca and hungry. You won’t be disappointed.

Very pleasant surprise after a late start for dinner in Cuernavaca. We were nearly despairing of finding anything open for dinner at 10pm. Suspecting Casa Hidalgo would be an overpriced tourist trap, we’d avoided it during a stay in town, but wound up sitting here anyway when everything else proved to be closed or closing. Service is excellent and discreet, and the menu full of treats from Morelos. I opted for something Yucatecan instead, and got the cochinita pibil, which was outstanding. The other half of the table had a Morelos-​style pork loin with guava a couple of different ways, which was even better. Views over the plaza are atmospheric at night.
