Ciudad de México (MEX)
31. August 2012: Restaurant California
The Molletes Combinados (Jamon y Chorizo; 104 MXN) are a great way to start the day early after a heavy night. The mollete is heavy but the combination of Chorizo and Queso Manchego makes it very tasty. The dish is actually quite simple – a bun of bread, ham or chorizo and cheese. The place […]
30. August 2012: Restaurant Maneira Grill & Vino
Starting with a Margharita into a blissful last evening in Mexico City was ideal … … to deal with the pretty spicy dips which were served with absolutely delicious bread (I never thought I would actually ever say that about Mexican bread but the bread was truly outstanding). As a main, I had “Bife de […]
23. August 2012: Restaurant Caipirinha Churrasceria
If you are into meat – you definitely have to go to the Restaurant Caipirinha Churrasceria. The concept is pretty easy – for 149 MXN you can enjoy a buffet with salads, potatoes, fresh fruit and, more important, … … included are 16 different kinds of meat which are served to you at your table […]
22. August 2012: Restaurant Pujol
Being number 36 of the world is not only a question of honour but also a matter of expectation handling – and although everything was outstanding, my expectations were somehow disappointed. I decided to enjoy the “Menú de Tierra” (980 MXN) which had eight courses while my company had the seafood menu. As an amuse […]
22. August 2012: Heladeria Santa Clara
The ice cream in the Heladeria Santa Clara (again a chain you can find all across Mexico) offers quite good ice cream and some typical Mexican one too. On one side I had a ball of Guayabayana (or something like that) which was quite refreshing and had a good and intense taste. Then again I […]
21. August 2012: Applebee’s Bar Universidad
The Applebee’s Bar are a chain which you can find all across Mexico. The one located in the Cinepolis complex is one among many bars in a food corner. The place is pretty run down and not really that appealing but definitely the best place around there. The service is friendly but quite slow and […]
21. August 2012: Street Restaurant Tortas
While the tortas I had in the Restaurant Châlet Gourmet already provided me with a good idea but were very touristic – the real tortas from the street are a whole different story. I had a Grande Torta Española (Milanesa, Chorizo y Quesillo; 37 MXN) – the torta is quite big but the beef as […]
20. August 2012: Restaurant Los Bisquets Bisquets Obregon
As a starter, I had a “Sope especial Bisquet – consomé con pollo y huevo picado, cubierto con queso gratinado” (40.50 MXN). The chicken and cheese in the soup were quite good – but the soup itself was pretty disappointing and if it was not for the lemon to be put in it, it would […]
