Pujol
Tonight’s dinner was at Pujol, probably one of the most internationally recognized restaurants in CDMX. We almost didn’t dine here at all because I missed booking a reservation 2 months in advance because I didn’t initially understand that their web site reservation doesn’t initially show what is and isn’t available until you actually try to

Los Cocuyos
We were shopping and sight seeing in the Historic Center which gave us an opportunity to eat at Los Cocuyos, a well known tacqueria that Chef Val at Californios recommended to us when we last ate at Californios a few weeks ago (I think Anthony Bourdain also recommended it). You can but the tacos directly

Rosetta
We worked up our appetites after a morning of ballooning and visiting the ancient pyramids at Teotihuacan. We decided to go to Rosetta.

Californios
Our weekly dinner out, but also our anniversary dinner. So great to have some elevated Mexican/Latin cuisine… we’ve had so much French/California/European fine dining cuisine, we really enjoyed something different. Flavors, ingredients, preparation, beverage pairings were all so interesting. Difficult to pick a favorite with so many great flavors during the masa courses, the taco
