Tacos, Tacos, Tacos

We had two fancy meals in CDMX. At Pujol, we did a taco tasting menu. This is Maggie with the snacks.

The tacos were very unique. This is Maggie with a pea and peanut taco, which she thought was the best of the bunch.

And this is Maggie with the mole. The old (dark) mole is +2,100 days old.

We had desserts outside. This ice cream was light yet flavourful. The meal was a nice experience overall. Maggie told us, YOLO!

We grabbed tacos are several different places. These are chicharron tacos from Orinoco Taqueria.

For an afternoon snack, we had delicious churros from Churros El Moro. Four long ones were 36 pesos.

After all the eating, sightseeing, and walking, Maggie loved resting on our hotel's rooftop. It was a great place to relax and recharge.

We had a great time exploring CDMX and would definitely return!

Maggie x CDMX

Maggie recently returned from a fab getaway in CDMX. We stayed at Casa Octavia. It was a chique refuge in the beautiful neighbourhood of Condesa.

We mainly went to CDMX to eat. For our first night, after grabbing a bunch of street food in the afternoon, we had dinner at Xel-Ha Bar, a local cantina that specializes in Yucutan cuisine. The lime soup was Maggie's fav.

The next day, we had a huge breakfast at El Cardenal. We started off with hot chocolate and a pastry...

...followed by flautas. Yum!

We checked out two museums during our stay - Museo Jumex and Museo Soumaya. Both are very close to one another and both are excellent. Museo Jumex had a Urs Fischer exhibit. Maggie liked this croissant with a butterfly on it. The croissant reminded Maggie of a crescent moon.

Maggie didn't quite get this rhino but it was big and shiny.

The building of Museo Soumaya was very impressive.

Equally impressive was the art collection, which is the private collection of a wealthy businessman, Carlos Slim. This is a Diego Rivera...

...and this is a Rodin. The museum has the largest collection of Rodin outside of France.

Keep Tijuana Tasty

Colin was super stoke for our day trip to Tijuana. We ate so much good food, including fish tacos...

...Caesar salad (from the original Caesar's restaurant)...

...a bunch of snacks at Telefonica Gastropark, including an unreal octupus burger.... 

...more tacos...

...paletas at the Food Garden...

...and cocktails at a speakeasy!
