In the Mexico real estate market, one key attraction tends to be the number world-class services available within a given area; during the past decade or two, Mexico has excelled in this area.  This is especially true of regions like the Cancun real estate market, where thriving international tourism has brought a large amount of investment, as well as lifestyle related services, such as golf courses, marinas, and international-quality gourmet restaurants.
One of the most recent examples of this is the Japanese restaurant, Katsu, which opened with the goal of becoming the best specialty restaurant offering Japanese food and social entertainment in the Mexican Caribbean. It is located in the Cancun’s Hotel Zone.
The recent grand opening was an event which included key businesspeople from the area, government officials and distinguished personalities of Cancun’s society, as well as special guests such as the Mexican actress Jacqueline Bracamontes.
The restaurant is located on Kukulcan Boulevard at km 13.5, across from Plaza Kukulcan
The Hotel Zone in Cancun is also a favorite area for Americans, Canadians and Europeans buying Mexico condos. Since the city was created from scratch 40 years ago, the Hotel Zone has come to offer residents many modern and international lifestyle features, ranging from shopping malls to professional golf courses. The opening of this restaurant is the most recent development in the gourmet food culture which has been growing in the area.
The concept of high-end oriental food in the new restaurant is to be driven by “the passion and dedication in preparing food, customer satisfaction in a relaxed atmosphere … to create a unique food experience in this area,” said Rodolfo González, Director General of the restaurant.
Some of the dishes being offered include Teppanyaki, ceviche, fish strips, butter clams, garlic fish, crispy shrimp and “shabu shabu,” among other Asian specialties.
The restaurant has a capacity of 271 people (121 people in the restaurant and 150 in the bar area).
