Last supper in Tijuana

[emmasmom60 0]

Hi,

I am going to TJ for my band in May and I was wondering whether anyone could recommend a good restaurant near the Hotel Lucerna for my 'last supper'?

Thanks,

Laura

Thanks Jack, but I already know what I will be eating for my first supper post-op (jello and broth - body willing). I don't really have 'last supper syndrome', I'm just looking for a nice place to eat.

Cheers,

Laura

I was banded by Ortiz in March of last yr and I went to a nice Mexican place across the street from the pharmacy (farmacia) which is directly across the street from the Lucerna. There is also a pizza Hut right next to the Hotel too. What we did is go to the Revolucion area (cab is like $2) and there is alot of yummy restaurants. We had some drinks and chips at another mexican restaurant on the strip ( I know, I ate ALOT before my surgery but I was starving...LOL :welldoneclap: ) Good luck to you!!

The BEST restaurant is right in the Lucerna next to the pool. The food is exquisite!! There is a pianist that plays while you eat. Now this is grilled fare. If you want Mexican food, there are plenty of those around, too.

Whatever you do don't eat the Carne Asada that Dr. Miranda recommends from the Hotel Lucerna restaurant (that's in the lobby). It was so fatty I couldn't even eat it. Yuck!

Mexico doctors don't recommend the pre-operative diet (liquids only)? What's up with that?

I did have to do the pre-op diet. I had to do 10 days of Protein Shakes for Breakfast and lunch plus a Lean Cuisine for dinner. I know that the diet each person is prescribed is based on their health and start weight. However, the day of my pre-op testing the nutritionist, Dr. Miranda, said I could have a light dinner that night and recommended the carne asada. Hope that clarifies my previous statement!
