Or do you prefer the party side with tequila and the great beaches in El Sur?
A little of both, though I've never encountered armadillo or been to El Sur. I plan to spend about half my time near the coast, and maybe 2/3 or the time I like to eat at fondas or street carts. I'll eat whatever the comida corrida is, and I can't recall ever not liking what was served.
The rest of the time I'm gonna do a little road trip inland and down the coast away from the heavily touristed areas. I personally am not a fan of the fancy resorts at all. I like to experience it warts and all.
Because I'm not exactly flush with cash at the moment, I'm planning on going native for most of my eats this trip. I do have plans to hit a few more expensive restaurants that I know from prior trips. That's an indulgence, though. Mostly I'm there to relax and do a lot of nothing.
