Saw this and had to respond.  We were there for mid-winter break (1/19 to 1/26) and brought the pan, utenstils and oneg cheese.  We brought two packages and had one left over.  Chefs were really nice.  Executive/head chef went out of his way...

And I told him about lighting the flame... hilarious....

Glad you were able to make use of the cheese...

Umm that is hilarious and since I'm pretty sure you also trained the chef and left stuff at the Conrad Maldives that we used you're like the DDF food coordinator!  :P ;D

Great TR! I already forwarded the link to a few non-DDF friends trying to plan trips to Cancun!

Thanks, and I hope it was helpful to them.

Never understood the public opinion of that place. It was so mediocre.
great TR Markus. re Luxus, i think the point is they are just inconsistent, as opposed to chabad Cancun, who consistently do a great job with great delivery service (and are more affordable usually and esp yeshiva week). Kosher Luxus' ceiling is a midrange brooklyn restaurant (think jerusalem steakhouse), and sometimes they run into issues. but the option to go out to a nice location with alcoholic bevs and decent food in a place like Cancun makes them a go to at least once if u are staying in the area/want a night out with the mrs.
