Copper Canyon Travel
Brief Stay in Chihuahua, Mexico - Page 2
The next morning, however, things began to look up immediately
after finding the Cafe Merino at Avenidas Juarez and Campo
in Ciudad Chihuahua. I recognized the restaurant immediately
as one of those great diners where you can have a hearty
egg and bacon breakfast such as this one for less than $3---just
what I had become accustomed to in Ciudad Juarez.
This entire meal was only $5 with the tip. After another
shivering night between the sheets the hot coffee really
hit the spot.
In keeping with my practice of featuring the people I encounter in my articles, this was my waitress, Yareth Ramírez Domínquez. She is a Chihuahua native who was interested in where I came from and what I was doing in Mexico. When I told her about the Copper Canyon article and asked if she would like to have her picture published, her smile would have lit the room. It was a truly warm, beautiful smile. Then like many people do, once confronted with the camera the smile disappeared...:) (No matter, we'll get a better picture when I return. Thanks for the great service, Yareth!)
