Fodor's Expert Review Café Eucalyptus

Quite possibly Ecuador's liveliest restaurant is this downtown, two-floor, all-tapas place. Mix and match to assemble your meal from an astounding selection of appetizers. (Sushi and sashimi are on the menu too.) Eucalyptus also claims to have the country's largest selection of wines and liquors, and we've never seen any evidence to the contrary. Cuenca's U.S. expat community, a 40-, 50-, 60-something crowd, moves the tables together and holds court here Friday evenings. Stop by and say hello.
