La Merced
Start your day like a true chilango (that’s what we call Mexico City locals) with freshly steamed tamales and a cup of warm atole—a comforting traditional breakfast that goes way back in Mexican culture. While you eat, you’ll dive into the fascinating corn legacy that shaped Mexico’s identity.
Next up: mole. But not just any mole—this rich, complex willow has roots in pre-Hispanic cuisine and has evolved into one of Mexico’s most iconic dishes. Get ready to taste history in a single bite.
We’ll cool down with a handmade pineapple drink you’ll only find in this market—a true hidden gem in the heart of the city.
We’ll wrap things up with a juicy, made-to-order steak taco straight from the griddle. No filters, no fancy plating—just the way locals eat it.
