How to Prepare and Enjoy Mukul, an Auberge Resort's Ceviche de Pescado, Nica Style

There’s nothing more refreshing than a salty, citrus-packed snack on a warm beach day. Adopted from Spain and originating in present-day Peru, ceviche is a marinated, raw fish dish that combines lime, vegetables, and olive oil for the perfect seaside dish to enjoy. When introduced in Nicaragua, locals put their own spin on it, using a variety of fresh fish available in the area, such as mahi mahi and sea bass.

Overlooking Nicaragua’s Emerald Coast and Manzanillo beach, order Mukul’s fish ceviche at La Terraza. Here you can enjoy the tasty appetizer amidst views of the sea. To dine at La Terraza is to taste the heritage of Nicaragua, as all dishes feature only local Nicaraguan ingredients. A special attention to locally source fish is integral to the restaurant’s mission, and all fresh catch come from the neighboring villages of either Gigante or San Juan del Sur. 

If you seek closer access to the waves during your lunch, order La Terraza to go. The restaurant will prepare the perfect picnic lunch for you to tow to the beach, where you can enjoy your ceviche and a cold beverage in the sun.
