Food Scene

If you are not into molecular cuisine, then this is the best restaurant in Mexico. Italian cuisine with Mexican twists and local, farm-fresh ingredients that chef Eduardo García transforms with magic into the most delicious food I have ever had (really).

In the neighborhood of coffee, my vote for the best third generation coffee...pourovers and many more styles in a minimalist space where you can work or relax near cozy Rio de Janeiro square with its David fountain.

I know this is Thai food in Mexico - but this is seriously better than the best I have had in NYC or SF. Sister restaurants are Kiin and Daeng, also in Roma

Arts & Culture

A stunning, well-curated and engaging museum with samples of Mexico's colorful crafts, pottery, traditional clothing, masks, artistry and more. Truly well done and not yet well-known. Mexico's best curated shop for crafts as well, if you don't have hours to explore La Ciudadela market then do your craft shopping here...

Cafe and reliable upscale but informal Mexican restaurant with the best view of the Aztec ruins downtown. Personally I enjoy this more than viewing the ruins up close.

An eclectic upscale yet affordable collection of men's clothing, both Mexican-made and imported, with the utmost hip style in mind... on the city's new hip strip, Havre street

large handicraft market a few steps from the apartment, good for the basics, though for more high quality selection I recommend Ciudadela (larger) or Museo de Arte Popular (curated)
