Between the ancient ruins of Centro Histórico, the sprawling art markets in San Ángel, and the strong cafe culture of Condesa and Roma, Mexico City is a place you could visit 100 times and always find something new. And while it’s essential to pepper in the big-name museums, huge green parks, and architecture tours, if you’re like us, the priority will always be the food.

Generally speaking, breakfast and lunch are the main meals here, and dinner tends to be a mere formality. Plan to eat your biggest spread in the afternoon, and keep it simple with a round of tacos or some snacks at a bar in the evening.
