Olivetto Italian - YapaTree
Olivetto Italian Restaurant We've been enjoying this delightfully different Italian restaurant just off Remigio Crespo. Today's treat was breakfast, but we've thoroughly enjoyed lunches and dinners there too. It's a great option for a lazy afternoon chat too, our suggestion is to share some wine with a burrata - buffalo cheese with olives, pesto, cherry tomatoes & jamon. It's divine. Location: Calle Rafael Ramírez 1-26 y Remigio Romero, Cuenca. View YapaTree deal: https://rfr.bz/f6gnf6p #cuenca #restaurants #italian

Pho is back. Look who's back! I've been patiently waiting for more pho to arrive in town. And, here it is. Some of you likely know Jules (in video) from previous ventures in Cuenca. Well, he's hit the ground running with Pho District. They're still in the soft-launch stage, so the full menu may not be available. They do have chicken and beef pho. Pho District is located: 6-52 Hermano Miguel (near Juan Jaramillo) #cuenca_ecuador #restaurant #pho

Quick Tip: Enrolling House Helper in IESS
Quick Tip: Enrolling House Helper in IESS We've recently hired a new helper for our house. To ensure we comply with Ecuador's labor laws, we need to register our helper in the IESS system so they receive the full legal entitlements. Like most red-tape in Ecuador, the process can be a little frustrating (read: non-sensical) if you haven't gone through the process before. For example, this one step took us around an hour to complete and it was only to receive a password so we can start the process. #cuencaecaudor #iess #expattips

Grand Prix Cuenca 2023 The city welcomed back the race for the 1st time in 30 years. It ended up being suspended due to wet weather and the organizers didn't want to risk more accidents. In hindsight, it's pretty clear they'll need to redesign their safety management plan if they want future events. #cuencaecuador #grandprix

El Patio
Quito's Regular Expat Meetups - Tuesday 1:30pm @ El Patio (Cumbaya) Visiting family in Quito, we decided to check out a regular expat meetup that happens every Tuesday at El Patio restaurant in Cumbaya. We were interested in comparing this meetup with those in Cuenca. And, we left rather impressed at how welcoming and cohesive this group was. Maybe it's because 90% of those there today have an Ecuadorian partner and have been here for a while. We'll be back next time we're passing through. Thanks for having us and thanks to Journeyman Jack for organizing. El Patio: https://rfr.bz/f40hy7y #quito #restaurants #expats
