It is unusual for us to stay at all inclusive resorts. We certainly have never been at an all inclusive resort for two weeks. Now we know why. The food is lavish. Five restaurants are at the ready, all to please your palate. For breakfast and lunch they serve a buffet at three locations. At dinner, the menu is different in each of the restaurants. One serves Asian, another Italian, one Mexican and another a Brazilian steakhouse. The last is a romantic lobster and steak dinner that you book ahead and are served by the beach. Clearly, each restaurant is different. But now that we are in the second week of our visit to The Vallarta Palace, it seems to us that all the food tastes the same and is a bit boring.
We had mentioned it before, while staying at all inclusive resorts and cruises, but we forgot. Today we were trying to figure out why we feel that way and have decided that the food is fine, but we have changed. By the end of a week, we know what is on the menu and even though the buffet is lavish and varies day to day we know all the options. The sense of anticipation is absent, therefore the food becomes boring. There is something about a human being that requires variety. I know we will miss the many trays of fruit, but at the moment, it seems like all the food tastes the same. We are perverse.
