Mexico City food tour
MEXICO CITY EVENING FOOD TOUR โ Night time's the right time in Mexico City, especially Frida Kahloโs bohemian neighbourhood Coyoacรกn.
On our nightly 12+ taster roaming feast, you'll dig deep into the local spots that make this district one of the best culinary areas in the city. Start strong with smoky chistorra, tangy tinga de jamaica and crispy taco de pescado.
It's hard to know which tasting steals the spotlight. It could be the simple but satisfying sopes or rich tamal de mole wrapped in its fragrant husk, a Frida favourite. Perhaps it's the roasted esquites or gordita folded over beefy suadero. Of course, a Mexico City food tour wouldn't be complete without a classic taco al pastor carved straight for the fiery trompo. There's drinks too. A warm cup of cafรฉ de olla, creamy riced-based horchata and seasonal guava atole, not to mention a freshly brewed pulque.
This is Mexico City culinary scene at its most irresistibly delicious.
Why this tour is awesome
Most visitors never experience Coyoacรกn after darkโwhen Frida Kahloโs bohemian neighbourhood transforms into a warm, lively maze of street eats. This tour dives into this culinary district with 12+ tastings, from smoky Mexican sausages and crispy tacos de pescado to mole tamales, roasted esquites, and essential al pastor straight off the trompo. Itโs a delicious look at how Mexico City really eats once the sun goes down.
