⭐⭐⭐ I'm vegan + Medical Medium + gluten-free and mostly fat-free and corn-free. My way of eating can be hard to maintain while traveling. But at the Taquería El Mexicano was very helpful and made a special dish just for me with veggies and potatoes 🥔 🥕🥬 The waitress was very help and made sure she was right about all my special need by asking in the kitchen 👍🏻 🧈🧀 It's important to order “sin manteca [animal fat often used for cooking vegetarian dishes] and sin queso [cheese]”. 🍉For drinks I had a watermelon juice from the menu. Remember to order without sugar [sin azúcar]. The dish was a mix of veggies fried on the pan (zucchini , free beans, carrots, onion and cabbage). The dish was a little oily but I forgot to ask for it without oil only “sin manteca” The potatoes turned out to be french fries - but I wasn't specific on that part when ordering, and of course I'll get french fries in a touristic area as Cozumel, since that's what most tourists want 🤷🏻‍♀️ The dish had no spice added at all, so I added some habanero salsa, and it was fine. I think I would have had better luck ordering a salad 🥗 The watermelon juice was huge and very delicious 😋 ⭐⭐⭐ I would love my vegan gluten free dish 3⭐ and 5⭐ for the watermelon juice. My family was more satisfied with their meals and especially the huge drinks, so I'll give it 5⭐ for the drinks 4⭐overall. We paid 850 $MX for 4 main courses and 5 drinks. 💚 Minna #vegan #glutenfree #medicalmedium
