Motel Mexicola is indeed the quintessential Mexican experience–even though it’s islands away! Walking inside we all felt transported to a different land even though we were still on the island of Bali. After seeing several of my favorite bloggers (yes Geneva and Shea, I’m talking about you) tote the same message of how awesome Motel Mexicola is I knew it would be a great place to meet up with our dear friend, David. This would be the second time in a month that we would be fortunate to meet up with him–the first being a spontaneous, chance encounter in the streets of Shanghai. See, that’s how small the world is. We can stumble upon folks we know in Shanghai at a street-side café and then meet up a month later in Bali for Mexican. I feel lucky for so many reasons with travel and good friends being one of them. Kevin and I started this international ride 18 years ago, yet we never would have guessed all the opportunities this lifestyle has given us. We met David while working together in Mumbai, India where we became fast and good friends. Since then there have been visits made out to the cabin and other visits of ours to see David in Kuala Lumpur. So of course we made it possible for a meal together when we were all spending our Christmases in beautiful Bali. Embracing this small world is such fun. David, where should we meet up next?!
Motel Mexicola is just as cool as I had heard about. It’s so funky eclectic with bright lighting and religious relics everywhere. The food was delicious and the staff super friendly. At one point we joined in the cha-cha train that scurried the perimeter. The portion sizes were nice and small too which I prefer as it lets the taste buds experience more. This stylish haunt is definitely one to hit up no matter the drive–the food and experience are that good! Viva Motel Mexicola in Bali!
David, happy belated birthday! We had such fun with you!! For more travel posts from beautiful Bali click here. And for updates on Kremb de la Kremb follow on Bloglovin’.
