Puerto Vallarta (PV) is a city that hardly needs introduction; it has come far from its beginnings as a tiny fishing village, and a film set for The Night of the Iguana. These days Puerto Vallarta is the glittering jewel in the crown of Banderas Bay, a perennial tourist hotspot, and all-round city of culture, art, and cuisine.
PV Restaurant Week
With that in mind it is hardly surprising that in 2005 Puerto Vallarta Lifestyles Publishing group began the now annual tradition of the Puerto Vallarta Restaurant Week following in the footsteps of the London and New York Restaurant Weeks! In a relatively short amount of time the popularity of this event has grown year on year since its advent. Locals, expat residents, snowbirds and tourists from all over the world wait anxiously for it to come around each year.
