A month ago we briefly stopped to peek at Amor Corazón, a most unusual Restaurant not far from Tapalpa. Inside we found decorative two-headed snakes wound around columns, “thrones” straight out of Lord of the Rings and a fascinating mural with figures made of wine bottles and shiny glass balls. “Shades of Gaudí,” we said; “Who created all this?”
The artist, we learned, is Carlos Sánchez González, “and the food here,” we were told “is equally unusual and delicious.”
This restaurant lies in the middle of a great pine and cedar forest and is surrounded by quaint cabins for rent. My wife Susana and I decided the best way to appreciate the restaurant and to get to know the artist was to spend a night in the woods, so we made reservations for a weekend when Carlos would be on hand.
