I am happy to report I finally ripped off the international travel Band-Aid! Getting into Mexico City was a breeze. Upon arrival, you receive your immigration form, whether from the airline or right at the customs line, and then you’re off to your Mexico adventures.
Mexico City is a place many head to for culinary gems like Pujol and Contramar. It is also a city full of architectural, cultural and artistic beauty. I am a Mexico City native or, as the locals say, a chilanga. I love going to Mexico City for the street food and art. My favorite part about the city is how walkable it is. It is much like New York City — you move much slower than in a car and can only experience the richness of living there by walking.
My favorite new discoveries:
1. Audiorama Parque España: After hours of walking, find yourself in a secluded part of the lush Parque España, Audiorama. This is a place where you can break away from the city and relax until sundown. Find yourself a comfortable swinging chair, close your eyes and let the Zen music do the rest. The best part? It’s free to the public!
2. La Otilia: I found this gem while looking for a place to work. La Otilia offers sugar-free and gluten-free delights. Despite the fatty foods you’ll find in the array of street foods, Mexico City has a strong healthy food game. To top it off, this Instagram-able establishment partners with local businesses for philanthropic fundraisers.
3. Street Vendors: No matter the day of the week or time of day, street vendors have your back, whether you’re looking for fruit, a post-dinner coffee or esquites (a Mexican delight).
Have you been to Mexico City recently? What are your favorites?
