LU-124; MELU-124; ME

It may be difficult to find a place as quaint as LU|ME. Tucked within Pedregales de Tanlum in Mérida, this tiny spot has just a handful of tables sprinkled across a covered patio (the kitchen is accessed through a sliding door of the attached home). This daytime restaurant, from husband-and-wife Angel Peláez Vázquez and Marisol Quintal, is named for their family matriarchs: Lucretia and María Elena. It's all about Mexican brunch that evolves with the seasons. Their cooking is all heart, and while daily specials like a taco de pescado are always a treat, you'll never go wrong with chilaquiles. Opt for this house staple with eggs or their personal twist with chamorro de cerdo for a flavorful plate. Their French toast is a good bet, but don't miss their seasonal dessert.
