Monthly meal
In compliance with all the health measures established by the official newspaper on 28 January, the first Skål International Villahermosa monthly meal of 2022 was held, in which several members of this club participated, as well as the two Former Presidents Francisco Guzman, Founding President, and Gerardo Banda, being the first official meal of the new president of the club, Sara Soto.
Various topics were covered in favour of Tabasco and Mexican tourism, as well as information from the national board and the presentation of some guests and future partners.
We then went on to taste a wonderful menu, prepared by the in-house chef, Jorge, who delighted us with tacos of octopus al pastor, which caused more than one of us suffer, since both the octopus and the tortilla were prepared with habanero chilli. This was followed by avocado stuffed with tuna and salmon marinated in spices, and then a seafood broth with the special touch of oysters, followed by breaded sea bass, culminating with a wonderful red fruit pie, all accompanied by wines from Casa Marroquín and high-end liquors.
Special guests were Jesús Manuel Raúl Soberano, President of the Asociación Mexicana de Hoteles y Moteles de Tabasco, A.C., Alma Espadas, Mayor of the Municipality of Teapa and Karla Durán, 3rd Councillor of the Municipality of Centro.
