Cooperation project between the private sector, represented by the National Chamber of Restaurants and Foods, and the Mérida Municipality. Hundreds of restaurants, in Mérida and in the interior of Yucatán Region, offer a special menu for a week with the most representative of their cuisine at a special price, below the normal price. The scope is to give visibility to the thriving restaurant scene and facilitate access through reduced prices to residents and visitors.
