Stay Warm & Save Money!

Trustworthy service and a great deal!

A family-owned business based in Dolores Hidalgo, Gas Providencia has been providing Club members with a significant discount for many years. If you have a stationary Gas LP tank at your home or business, and you don’t know about the savings you could be getting just by being a VIP Club Member, here’s the deal:

Gas Providencia already offers the lowest price per liter of gas in town, but with your VIP Card, you can take $0.65 pesos off the per-liter published rate when paying in cash or via bank transfer. So if gas this week is going for $10.50 pesos/liter, you’re only paying $9.85. If you get 250 liters of gas in your stationary tank, that means you’re saving $162 pesos!

And now VIP Members can get a discount when paying with a credit card too! Nancy at Gas Providencia has recently authorized a $0.40 peso discount off the per-liter price when paying by credit card (only cards issued by a Mexican bank though… the commission they have to pay on foreign cards is much higher). And if you have a business here and need a factura, they can arrange that!

Call the trucks directly for service:

Anyone can sponsor a Newsflash for $3,000 pesos!

Greetings!

It is one our favorite times of year here in San Miguel. The hills are green, the wild flowers are in bloom, it’s cooled down a bit in the mornings and evenings, and the town is not quite as busy. This week it’s time to start thinking of putting up your ofrenda for Día de Muertos - head over to the Plaza Cívica for your papel picado, velas, flores, and alfeñiques.

One week from today, Sunday October 27th, we will be at the Feed the Hungry Walk, Run, Bike for Food fundraiser at Viñedo Dos Búhos. Laura will be at her usual spot at the starting line, explaining the route to participants, and Anthony will be at a booth selling VIP Cards. A portion of our sales that day will be donated to FTH! VIP Cards make great gifts, so if you have a friend who’s not yet a member and you think they’d enjoy a card, stop on by!

We are working hard to improve Your Club and have some updates coming soon. In the meantime, we are getting around town and replacing the old stickers, though this might take us some time to visit each establishment.

If you are a business owner and want a new sticker urgently, Whatsapp or phone us at 415-200-5300.

“Now let’s get rockin’!”

Your Club is proud to welcome the elegant restaurants of Numu Boutique Hotel, located across the street from Rosewood on Nemesio Diaz!

Located in the ground floor courtyard of Numu Hotel, surrounded by jacaranda trees, Enrique offers breakfast from 7 am - 2 pm. A culinary concept that celebrates the tradition of Mexican cuisine, where local ingredients and the colorful culture of its dishes are the centerpiece to start your day, their light, traditional, signature, sweet and Mexican breakfasts make up the morning menu.

In the evenings, from 5 pm - 10 pm, Enrique is reborn to show its mastery in preserving and tasting the best wines in the world, in what is considered one of the best wine cellars in San Miguel de Allende. The tapas, charcuterie boards, dishes and desserts from Enrique's select night menu are the ideal complement under the soft light of the sunset.

Up on the rooftop (which many have said has an even better view than their neighbor across the street), NOIA is a culinary destination in San Miguel de Allende where the flavors and colors of the Mediterranean and the richness of traditional Mexican cuisine merge; a gastronomic experience that celebrates the diversity of ingredients, aromas and the culinary traditions of two worlds. Live local music, signature mixology, and breathtaking sunsets are the perfect backdrop to their extraordinary menu.

VIP Members can take 15% off their bill at either of the hotel’s restaurants.

We also welcome a relatively new spot that’s already becoming a local favorite: Ziracco! Located at Hernández Macías 98, Ziracco offers a premier Italian culinary experience that combines tradition and innovation. They have a menu that honors classic recipes with local and imported ingredients, delivering authentic flavors of Italy. The elegant and welcoming atmosphere, along with impeccable service, elevates the experience. Its wine list, with select Italian labels, allows each dish to be perfectly paired, making Ziracco the definitive destination to enjoy haute Italian cuisine in San Miguel de Allende. Your VIP Club discount is 10% when paying cash and 5% with a credit card.

Also proudly joining the VIP line-up is Serrano 18 which offers upscale Mediterranean comfort food, located in the back part & upstairs of Ryokó Japanese Cuisine (another Club member) on Hernández Macías 82. Chef Kiko is serving up fried artichoke (among other delicious appetizers), salads, pizzas, and more. Iván is on hand to make sure the service is exemplary both on their beautiful rooftop and in the cozy downstairs section, with tables situated around an old tree. This is a fun place to relax and unwind! VIP Members can take 10% off their bill.

We are also happy to welcome the popular and very Sanmiguelense El Café Tal to the club which has been serving San Miguel since 2013. Located on Orizaba 36 in Colonia San Antonio, husband and wife Adriana and Valentín offer a wide variety of hot drinks and natural juices to accompany great pastries and an extensive, very reasonably priced, menu. Visit their charming outdoor patio and enjoy a cozy and relaxed atmosphere. Breakfast and lunch are served from 9 am - 3 pm, and then from 3-8 pm, you can enjoy Veracruzano coffee and desserts. Your VIP discount is 10% when paying cash.

Bhaji’s back baby! After unforeseen circumstances resulted in Adrian having to temporarily close his restaurant, he has found a new spot! Teaming up with Francois from La Adelita bar, Adrian has transformed the space above the “biggest little bar in town,” located at Zacateros 48, into a colorful and cozy place to enjoy his delicious curry and other Indian delights. VIP Members can take 10% off when paying cash.

Now that it’s started to get a little chilly in the evenings, comfort food is on our minds over here at the Club. And nothing screams comfort food like pizza! No matter where you live in town, there’s a great spot nearby. And now we have a special map to showcase all of our pizza and Italian food restaurants!

Don't forget the great new businesses that came aboard last month:

Your club welcomed Comunidad by Our Habitas, which is part of a boutique property nestled in Valle de Los Senderos (Carretera San Miguel de Allende a Dolores Hidalgo km 3.5), and offers a menu of contemporary Mexican cuisine with subtle Middle Eastern influences, highlighted by wood-fired cooking. Members are invited to enjoy signature experiences like the Sunset Grill every Saturday from 6 - 10 pm and Sunday Brunch from 9 am - 2 pm. The restaurant is pet-friendly, has great Wi-Fi if you need to get some work done, offers plenty of free parking, and extends a 15% discount to VIP Club Members, valid for the cardholder and up to five guests!

Comunidad by Our Habitas is close to town and easy to get to, but out there you feel like you’re worlds away from the hustle and bustle of town! The entrance via the Dolores Hidalgo highway is closed right now due to construction, so the access is via Avenida Central, just off the libramiento. At the gate just tell them you want to go to the restaurant!

Your Club also welcomed Eneldo Cocina Casual, a new elegant-casual dining experience located in the former Café Monet space at Zacateros 83. VIP Club Members get a 10% discount!

Raíz de Piedra is a unique art gallery and home decor store located at Zacateros 43. Specializing in exquisite stonework, they offer a wide variety of handcrafted items to elevate your space.  VIP Members get a 10% discount on everything made with stone, they also have a great selection of jewelry and sculpture, with a 5% discount on all art pieces.

Your Club also welcomed a local favorite, Glow & Go Spa, your destination for relaxation and beauty! Located at Zacateros 43 A, they offer rejuvenating facials, manicures, and pedicures. Club members can enjoy a 10% discount on services when not using other promotions.

Your VIP Club is pleased to partner with the Festival del Asado! The producers of this event have put on many large-scale festivals in León, Morelia, and Querétaro, and now they're coming to San Miguel to showcase their talents and provide our community with a fun-filled afternoon and night of eating, drinking, dancing, and other activities for the whole family to enjoy.

We will have more details in our next Newsflash, but for now, mark your calendars for December 14!
