Mexico is very well known for
its food, and there is so much of it and so poorly represented elsewhere in the
world that most likely you are to get a very positive surprise. A few
observations: not all food is spicy, a taco is essentially something wrapped
inside a tortilla and the options are many, there are tons of different typical
dishes, different regions of the country sell different things (some things
having the same name), in Mexico City you can find almost all of the regional
food from the country (ask in the forum for specific stuff), we love
"antojitos" but we usually have a more healthy and balanced meal, a
"comida corrida" is a great and cheap meal that commonly has a soup,
rice or pasta, a main course and flavored water (agua fresca).
NEVER DRINK TAP WATER! You
will need shop water bottles at stores, you will find Oxxo or 7-Eleven stores
almost each block in the city, most of them are 24/7 stores.
Consider that YOU CANNOT DRINK
ANY ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES ON THE STREET, you could be caught by the police. You
won’t go to jail but they will try to get a brive and you will spend a lot of
time and money arguing with them.
