Overview
Discover Mexico City through a cultural and gastronomic experience in small groups, designed to understand the origin, evolution and secrets of Mexico’s most emblematic dish: taco. Along the way we will visit three stops that combine history, tradition and practical learning. We will start in a traditional taqueria to know the origin of the taco, the cooking techniques of its most representative stews and the label to eat it as a real Mexican. Afterwards, we will visit a family space where you will discover the biodiversity of Creole corn, the process of nixtamalization, the variety of chilies and the use of pre-Hispanic tools such as metate and molcajete. We will finish in an establishment recognized by the Michelin Guide for elevating the blockbuster tradition with excellence and authenticity. More than a tasting tour, it is a cultural immersion to understand why taco is a symbol of Mexican identity.
Meeting and Pickup
Find us at the roundabout of the Fountain of Cibeles, near the letters CDMX. Look for us with the umbrellas and shirts of GREEN color.
