Go out, mingle, try different flavors. And remember, one of the many beautiful customs of Mexico is the warm hospitality shown in restaurants. It is considered rude to ask you if you are ready for the check - to Mexicans, it would be the same as if they were kicking you out of their home. When you are ready, you have to ask for:
“La cuenta, por favor!” 50
