It seems like everybody is making their way to Mexico City to see for themselves how good the madre mole at Pujol is, if the tuna tostadas and carajillos at Contramar are worth the hype and whether the drinks at Tlecān are really the best in the world.
Mexico City or la ciudad, “the city,” as it’s known colloquially, earned its moment. It’s worth the trip for the food alone (the amount of history and culture is another trip unto itself), but those in the know are spending their time elsewhere: a 90 minute flight west, in Guadalajara — Mexico’s second largest city and burgeoning playground of gastronomy, art and culture.
