(Probably due to the fact that it doesn't really have a name yet.) The efforts were well worth it though! How the chef puts together such a delightful tasty meal containing hints of other cultures, with such a low price is a mystery. It was so good we returned again before leaving Mexico City. Mexico is full of great taqueria stands, and if you follow this blog I would suggest eating at any of them mentioned here. If however, you want to try something a little different, Quim Jardi is your guy. I have been trying to duplicate that pickled cucumber salad dressing without much success, so QJ, if you happen to read this I would love any tips!<br /><br />Thanks, Kathy and GrantAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-55499139491072133262011-01-12T18:15:51.702-06:002011-01-12T18:15:51.702-06:00There were some OK elements here (the soup and the...There were some OK elements here (the soup and the salad course were passable), but the main dishes were not good. This place tries way too hard to be inventive and still keep an absurdly low price point. It's ultimately an unsatisfying failure. Much better options abound within walking distance, in taquerias and other amazing street food. Sorry for the harsh tenor of this post, but I am a great lover of Mexican cuisine and don't get to spend much time here and resent having to waste a meal, no matter the price, on over-reaching, mediocre food.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5726818504596195920.post-5571703438819041612010-08-16T15:13:56.802-05:002010-08-16T15:13:56.802-05:00unfortunately the service at the best pizza place ...unfortunately the service at the best pizza place in DF seemed, to say the least, like something out of a 60's monsters sitcom: endearing but terribly wrong.
