There are two artists on prominent display at LaFrida, the signature fine dining establishment at Pueblo Bonito's elegant Sunset Beach resort. The first is legendary Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, examples of whose work and wardrobe adorn the walls of the restaurant's sumptuously appointed dining room. The second is Chef Carlos Contreras Sánchez, who learned to cook at his grandmother's knee as a child in Oaxaca, and has since mastered the techniques and recipes of traditional Mexican cuisine, albeit with a few fresh twists of his own devising. The chef has a particularly deft touch with seafood focused fare like the Baja style Abalone Taco, although meat lovers may prefer the suckling pig or Jojutla style Barbacoa Lamb Shank, baked in maguey leaf from a pre-Hispanic recipe. For an extra dollop of tropical romance, dine on the al fresco terrace for stunning sunset views set against a gorgeous Pacific Ocean backdrop.
