A goodbye visit to the restaurant which rejected the 50 Best award but was rightfully nominated: Restaurant Masala y Maíz (1. December 2021)

The Masala y Maíz was nominated by the 50 Best for the “The Macallan Icon Latin America” award rightfully – however, they decided to reject the award. But let’s focus on the food – the process of getting a table takes a while as everything is prepared from the moment they open (i.e. 12:00 pm) […]

A waiter with great sales skills and a good drinks bargain: Restaurant Sonora Grill (30. November 2021)

A waiter with great sales skills and a good drinks bargain: Restaurant Sonora Grill (30. November 2021)

The original intention was to go for a drink at the Sonora Grill, however, since the waiter really does a good job at cross-selling and basically made clear that you get two drinks for one if you pick a starter so we decided to go for some tacos, i.e. the “center loin tacos (with cheese […]

A great place to stop for a couple of drinks: Restaurant Mythos Roma-Cibeles (30. November 2021)

Sometimes you just wand to do a short break to have a drink and something small to eat – and if that’s the case the Fuente de Cibeles is a great place for doing so. There are a number of restaurants around the fountain and it’s a nice area in Roma where you can walk […]

No. 27 of Latam’s best restaurants – not sure I agree: Restaurant Rosetta (29. November 2021)

No. 27 of Latam’s best restaurants – not sure I agree: Restaurant Rosetta (29. November 2021)

The Rosetta was listed as No. 27 of the best restaurants in Latin America so it was sure time to give it a try! They also run a bakery so it was for sure time to try their “mantequilla con hormiga chicatana y pan de centeno” (130 MXN) to check out if their bread was […]

A lovely experience with dust-induced surroundings: Restaurant Amaya (18. November 2021)

A lovely experience with dust-induced surroundings: Restaurant Amaya (18. November 2021)

The Amaya was another restaurant recommended in ‘La Liste’ and frankly speaking, not a bad one either. I went for the “ceviche de almeja generosa, con leche de tigre y aguacate” (220 MXN) which was definitely not really what I had hoped for since I did not understand that almeja means stomach – so it […]

Unless you don’t have another choice, don’t go: Restaurant ihop Patio Universidad (18. November 2021)

If you’re looking for a quick breakfast fix and don’t expect too much with regards to quality, then the ihop is a safe bet. Since I was a bit in a hurry, I decided to get something quick here and went for the “chicken quesadillas” (199 MXN) which were surprisingly good. I suppose if you […]

Lovely place in Colonia Roma with a decent balcony and good service: Restaurant Meroma (17. November 2021)

Lovely place in Colonia Roma with a decent balcony and good service: Restaurant Meroma (17. November 2021)

The Meroma was recommended by a friend who lives in CDMX, so I was happy to give it a try. Once you’re seated the evening starts with some “pan y chile rostizado” which was a good start into the evening since you’d have to be a tiny bit patient until you get your food. Since […]

Tasty traditional Mexican dishes in a nice location: Restaurant Los Girasoles (17. November 2021)

Since the Guide Michelin doesn’t really apply to Mexico, I decided to use another app called ‘La Liste’ which provides you with great recommendations around the world, ranking from the fine dining cuisine to the local recommendations. The Los Girasoles was one of those more local recommendations and I mus say, rightly so. Once you’re […]
