CDMX - Discover the cuisine of Mexico

Mexico City, affectionately known as CDMX by its residents—short for Ciudad de México—is a capital that never sleeps, and the city dearest to Rosa Cienfuegos' heart. In her second cookbook, Rosa takes us on a culinary journey through one of the world's most vibrant metropolises. When it comes to food, Mexico City's residents are unafraid of any flavor or innovation. Street food stalls compete to invent the latest trendy dish, while markets fiercely guard their traditions, offering time-honored recipes for homemade salsas that vary from stall to stall, market to market. CDMX's allure draws Mexicans from all over the world, who bring with them the culinary traditions of their home regions. These diverse influences mingle in the streets, markets, and restaurants, to be shared, celebrated, and sometimes give birth to entirely new creations. Whether it's traditional dishes (like pork tacos) or innovative ones (tequila shots served in a cucumber "glass" topped with chamoy sauce and tagine), or even revisited classics (for example, cheese elotes), CDMX's cuisine is as colorful as its streets and inhabitants.
