Mexico’s culinary scene is so underrated. It is such an incredible city. I do however miss the 25 peso torta days. Inflation is real everywhere around the world!
@@TheLeafs2000, same. Isn't it funny how many people get all bent out of shape because he tried the 7-11s or other convenience stores in their countries? I can only assume that they've never seen any of his videos before, or they'd know that he tries convenience stores (and especially 7-11s) in EVERY country he goes to.
Hi Mike, the chocolate you ordered at El moro was watery because it was mexican style which is made with water, they have a spanish style that is much thicker and made with Milk.
Watching Mikey eating pan con frijoles y queso made hungry so I went to the local market here in Los Angeles to get some bolillos and because I already had some frijoles parados I just blend them on my Ninja and fried them.
When you started having the churros and hot chocolate it totally brought me back to 7th grade Spanish class. The book we studied from was "Churros Y Chocolate" And I still have the book 44 years later.
Mexican terminology: Sandwich = Torta Cochinita = Pork in a sauce (full name is Cochinita Pibil/Pibil Little Pork) Bread with refried beans and cheese = Molletes Pico de Gallo (Roster's Beak) = chopped tomatoes, jalapenos, onion, cilantro and juice of limes. Tapas = appetizers. Small savory dishes, originally from Spain. Stew = Pozole 😂😂😂 made of Hominy Fried tortillas = Tostadas Churros = elongated Donuts type of thingy 🥳
@@OaibBiao and you prolly did have pulled pork 😄, thing is refried beans and cheese is very common but putting other things like chorizo/cream or in your case pulled pork, doesnt change the fact that its still a mollete, kind of like sandwiches, ppl put a lot of different things but its still a sandwich in the end .
How do you eat so much food 😬 but Mexican food is amazing love my cultures food I think its underrated wish people tried more of the traditional foods ❤
So true! I wish I didn’t wait until my last day in Mexico City to try that sandwich. I was totally regretting not getting it since day 1. It was SO good!!!!
Making me want to go to DF even more, now, man! I will find and hit up all these places and channel my inner Pac-Man the way your videos always make me want to do! Except when it comes to insects--that's a hard no on my end.
Try tacos de guisado !!! You will love it ! Specially the chicharrón one (but the mexican City style) you won’t regret it ! Thank you for domingo this kind of video !!
I have been to Chilpa, but can't seem to remember if it was good or not Edit: I have been to quite a few of these places actually, not sure if you're still in CDMX but if you are you should try out La Vaka since you enjoy your buffets so much
I noticed that in taco place, he censored to hide a person's identity sitting behind him. I wonder if the person made a fuss about being in camera, or the place asked not to film visitors there.
That spicy powder from the Pozole is like Chile Piquin and there tiny little chilis similar to Bird's Eye Chile. They grow wild and are spicy as hell and delicious! And, Yes a little goes a lomg way.
Hola hace tiempo que te digo y tengo que tenerlo en silencio pues porqué sería muy bonito si pudieses traducirlo en española porfavor si no no te seguiré
Mike, this is my first time watching one of your videos. I've seen you on a few other people's vids though. My first observation... eating that much in one day why are you not huge? LOL But I really enjoyed this. I imagined Mexico City would have been ridiculously expensive. And the food looked good! I would be passing on the scorpion though. Great channel. I'll be watching regularly.
Just to clarify, the cochinita they use in La Esquina del chilaquil is not made from pork meat, its a chicken meat cochinita. Next time ask for a Bomba (the bomb) its the same torta but with chicken milanesa and cochinita, one of those and you're set for the whole day.
Chilaquiles con huevo . Is the standard. But it's the fancy version . But the standard now. Back in the day eggs were available for everyone. Love your videos hermano.
If you ever visit Augusta, Georgia, try the Taqueria El Patron at 3107 Washington Rd, they do an amazing Pozole and their El Pastor tacos are fantastic! It's a simple place with some really good food!
@@billypilgrim1 no mms 60 pesos está bien cual caro mmn 😂 ya los tacos de canasta andan en $25, los vasitos de mango en $30 una torta de chilaquiles a $60 no está mal :v
Translation for those that don’t speak Spanish: it’s not expensive for us Mexicans at all especially with inflation making food cost go up. Also there are even more expensive places that charge that are less tasty then this place, $60 pesos is fair price 🙏🏼 (Not too cheap and not expensive at all)
Mike don’t exaggerate, by saying it’s the best sandwich in the world. Full of💩. It may be a great sandwich, but not the best. You’ve said it so many times,
Mike I’m watching this video and I’m eating McDonald’s !! 😂 and I’m Mexican Oh and we don’t drop the tostada in the bowl , you bite the tostada and then a spoon of pozole !!
