July 15 ❤ Candy's last day in Cancun

We all got up a bit late on Friday since we were all tired.  We made it to 100% Natural for breakfast and then headed off to wander around Mercado 28.  I bargained some really good prices and Juan said he thought he'd created a monster, that he thought I might barter better than Blenda's husband did in Peru.  ;)  We made a stop at Wal Mart to pick up things for lunch and so Candy could get some more chicharrones.  ;)

Juan made Peruvian ceviche for lunch, which was yummy as always.  Candy made herself a plate of chicharrones with different salsas for a snack while we watched a movie on TV.  I asked her if she wanted to relax or go look around Plaza Las Americas.  We rallied and walked around the mall for a few hours before going back to the house to get ready for dinner.  Juan had told us that we had a reservation at his restaurant at 10.  He wasn't supposed to be at the teppanyaki table, but he arranged it so he could cook for us.

Once we made it to Silk at ME by Melia, we kept our eye out for Juan.  He asked us if it was okay that he just brought us some sushi and prepared us something from the teppanyaki table that he thought we would like.  We agreed and got ourselves a drink: a mojito for Candy and a piña colada for me.  Juan got us some thinly-sliced sashimi with a yummy dressing.  The combination melted in our mouths.  It was absolutely amazing.  He cooked a bit of fried rice for us, vegetables, scallops, and steak on the teppanyaki.  Needless to say the food was unbelievable since he's the best chef ever.  ;)  They brought out a dessert tray with a banana tiramisu, a chocolate cake, and tres leches cake.  He made the tres leches cake.  They were yummy!!!  I love that the portions aren't to big so that you get lots of different yummy food, but don't feel like you're rolling out the door!!!

Our dessert!!!
After dinner we hung out in the lobby in an oversized chair until Juan was done with work.  We met him outside and took the bus home.
