Café de Tacuba
Café de Tacuba, founded in 1912 in Mexico City’s Centro Histórico, is the breakfast I recommend to everyone who visits — for the tamales de salsa verde, the café con leche ceremony, the estudiantina, and the building itself.
Where to eat in Mexico City and beyond — from the market comedor that costs 180 pesos and will ruin you for lesser mole, to the Michelin-starred restaurants worth planning your trip around. Recommendations based on direct experience, not press releases.
