I was specifically looking for spring roll and potsticker wrappers, both of which I found in the freezer section! We also went to Pad Thai, on your recommendation, and thought it was very good. Our first Thai food since arriving in Mexico City in July. The Pad Thai was great. We also had the only red coconut curry on the menu, substituted chicken for the beef and really enjoyed it. The Tom Yum, soup with coconut milk, was fantastic. We walked from Zona Rosa to Condessa for Thai. Only about 3/4 of a mile or so! Great day exploring a new part of the city for us.

I am from Toronto and am used to leaving my door and seeing a wide array of Asian food (good, bad, cheap, expensive) almost right outside my door and (in the area I last lived in) all the food in the chain grocery stores - to make my own "Asian" food. But it is hard to make this food without the right ingredients. Thanks!

Having grown up in Asia (Singapore and Malaysia) I have been exposed to some of the best asian food in (my opinon) the world, and since moving here last year, I have had a hard time satisfying my craving - and have had some disasterous experiences!

The goat curry was very good. Watch out for pieces of bone and skin in the chicken curries. We'll definitely be going back and are happy to find Indian food here that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Apparently it's open till about 7.30 because the plaza closes at 8.

FYI, I'm Korean. <BR/><BR/>No offense.. but as a fan of your book, and as one of the many beneficiaries of your invaluable advices on enjoying Mexico City, I felt the urge to tell you what the Koreans in Mexico City think about Biwon. <BR/><BR/>When it first opened, we had high expectations, since the ambience of Biwon looked promising. <BR/><BR/>While the other existing Korean restaurants in Mexico City have this ambience which takes away your appetite - seriously -, the decoration of Biwon looked normal and even smart. <BR/><BR/>HOWEVER, the food of Biwon is simply too bad. Unforgivably bad.<BR/><BR/>Instead, I'd like to recommend you Changwon or Youngbinkwan, just across the street on Florencia. <BR/><BR/>Their ambience sucks, but at least the food doesn't. My personal favorite between the two is Changwon, since its food is more home-style. <BR/><BR/>If you want to try popular Korean barbecue - not elegant one, but blue collar style -, there is a really hot spot, called Nadaepo on Liverpool 183. Full of Koreans, no empty table. These days Nadaepo is THE place to go for Koreans in Mexico City.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-10032713374214775562008-12-10T14:51:00.000-06:002008-12-10T14:51:00.000-06:00Another good Chinese place is La Nube Blanca, on I...Another good Chinese place is La Nube Blanca, on Insurgentes in Del Valle. They do serve Mexican food, although I've never tried it—the exception being tacos chinos, stir fried meat and vegetables wrapped in tortillas. Recommended. (This is operated by the same family that used to run Chie's, also on Insurgentes, near Metro Chilpancingo. Chie's has since shut down, but since the menu at Nube Blanca is identical, it isn't such a terrible loss.)<BR/><BR/>For Indian, I suggest Dawat, in Polanco on calle Séneca not far from the corner of Carlos Dickens. An actual Indian guy (rare here, alas) recommended it to me; I'm glad he did. (But note: the last time I was in the area, it was closed. That day was a <I>puente</I>, though, so hopefully it hasn't gone out of business or anything like that. Look them up on queremoscomer and call before going to avoid disappointment. Their reviews on q.c. are mostly negative, but in my experience their food beats Tandoor's, although I enjoy both.)Michael Wolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18068630733762770700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-14927467537101978862008-12-02T21:11:00.000-06:002008-12-02T21:11:00.000-06:00EXCELLENT ARTICLE AS A TRUE FOODIE BORN IN MEXICO ...EXCELLENT ARTICLE AS A TRUE FOODIE BORN IN MEXICO CITY RAISED IN THE US, LA JOLLA CA AND NYC, I KNOW HOW FRUSTRATING IT CAN BE TO FIND GOOD INTL CUISINE IN MEXICO.<BR/>I RECOMMEND NAGAOKA FOR EXCELLENT SUKIYAKI AND SOBA DISHES ITS NEAR THE WORLD TRADE CENTER, FOR CHINESE I RECOMMEND HUNAN IN LAS LOMAS ITS UPSCALE AND STUFFY BUT THEY HAVE EXCELLENT DIMSUM AND OTHER DISHES, ITS NOT ORIENTAL GARDEN IN NYC BUT IT WORKS!!!

My husband and I are Asian Americans and have a hard time finding authentic Asian cuisine in DF. I'll have to try some of those recommendations, but for the most part, I do my own cooking since I, too, am a little put-off by the interesting takes on Asian here-- since when did chop suey evolve into bean sprouts and a bit of minced chicken?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
