I'd like to begin my journey by offering you a few random photographs to whet the appetite.
The Xochomilco market is a wonderous sight of fresh produce.
Beautiful displays of spinach.
Radishes.
Cactus paddles, cleaned and ready to go.
Blue corn as a snack, steamed and served with freshly squeezed lime and sprinkled with salt and chile powder.
One of my favourite ingredients is huazontle. Here is a great big luscious bundle.
Stacks of lettuce, spinach and chard.
Another market snack is provide by a bank of ladies selling their corn masa memelas, tlacoyos, and other hot snacks. I enjoyed a blue corn tlacoyo that was stuffed with bean paste and served topped with cilantro, cactus paddles, cheese and green salsa. The other dish, I'm afraid I've forgotten the name (maybe gordita), was stuffed with chicharron.
The deluxe patina on the ceiling of the Bar Opera.
The nastiest bike ever.
The restful agave garden at the Dolores Olmeda Museum.
Stay tuned.
