Of Goat Heads and Chocolate

Mexicans are notorious snackers. Every morning, stalls throughout the city are set up to serve tacos with a myriad of ingredients, picante salsas at the ready.
Here is one that serves goat meat tacos with the heads making a decorative display.
If you ever find yourself wide awake at 3 in the morning, or whatever time in the morning, this venerable Mexico city institution welcomes you for hot chocolate and freshly made churros.


The menu is simple: 4 kinds of hot chocolate served with 4 churros, dipped in plain sugar or cinnamon sugar.

Chocolate Especial is semi-sweet or semi-amargo, rich and chocolatey.
Mexicano is made with leche but on the light side.
Chocolate Frances is half milk, half chocolate.
Chocolate Espanol is muy dulce for those who prefer a sweeter taste.
