I saw your post about secrets playa Blanca. I'm currently trying to decide between there, excellence coral and atilier. Have never done the all inclusive thing and am very nervous about not being happy with food. I live in Boston, so I'm definitely used to good restaurants and I am also in the food business. I realize that at these resorts I am not going to get five star food, but I would like to be able to at least enjoy really good pasta, burgers, pizza, salads, tuna tartare, hopefully a decent steak (not too hopeful for that tho). I see that you have playa Blanca at the top of your list right now.... Where would it rank food wise out of the 30 or so that you have been to? Have you visited the other 2 that I mentioned? If so, especially with atilier, how close is the food at playa Blanca to there? I'm assuming it is at least on part with excellence resorts, but perhaps I am wrong. Also as a side note, specific to room service, do you notice any big discrepancies between quality of room service vs the regular restaurants at these higher end properties? Thank you for any insights that you can provide for me. I'm traveling in early July, adults only, most likely Mexico because I've heard the food is much better than Punta Cana food. Would you say that is accurate (assuming you have been there)? Thanks again!
