I love it here
sweet
[Music]
good morning this is our last day in
Mexico City we're starting the day and a
special place called el pital wednesday
it we came here specifically for the
barbacoa this place is only open Friday
Saturday Sunday reason for that is
because barbacoa is traditionally a meat
that's made on the weekends are
typically on a Sunday in Mexico it's a
meat that's trapped in these leaves and
they cook it in a underground oven all
nights I cook slow so it's really tender
and juicy
smells delicious looks delicious we have
tortillas here and all the salsas in
line
onion here so very excited about
[Music]
that was incredible if you were here on
a weekend you have to come here the meat
was so soft and tender and flavorful and
the salsas were amazing and we thought
you really get seven or eight when they
opened then we were the only ones there
so we had the whole place to ourselves
which is pretty cool but I hear this
place gets pretty popular and now we
came over to the neighborhood of Cola
Khan we've heard awesome things about
this neighborhood I was just reading an
article while we were in our uber and it
said that this is the neighborhood that
foreigners want to move to when they
visit the city so we're really excited
to check it out they were really popular
market here that we're gonna go to and
we're gonna go get a coffee which is our
first task because yesterday we waited
his like nine hours and that was brutal
so we're not gonna make that mistake
again
and then we're just gonna kind of walk
around and see if we find it looks
really awesome so far we decided to do a
coffee
bang-bang what that means as we go to
two places back-to-back so it's a
totally learn just podcast we look
called extra pack of peanuts they do a
lot of bangbang so they do ice creams
and eggs chocolate bang Bang's you can
do a taco ice cream bang bang there's so
many options so love just like stuffing
our business so we wanted to experience
as many coffee shops while we're in town
so we thought we just hit up two
back-to-back so the first one is cafe
negra which is this very trendy kinda
hipstery coffee shop
have the white break we have a lot by
putting black accents the subway tile
about plants which is my favorite so
basically I drink coffee shop so I'm
loving it so far
got an Americano gonna test it out
[Music]
and part two of our coffee bangbang is
ill haroche oh this place has been here
for 66 years a little bit of time we got
a copy the oil which is a traditional
Hispanic drink that's made from ground
coffee cinnamon and unrefined sugar that
kind of has like a caramel flavor I hope
it's not too hot it might give it a try
right now I burned my tongue
sweet flavor the table is just right
[Music]
[Music]
alright our next stop is Mikado Culiacan
there are tons of markets in Mexico City
but we heard this is a really good one
to check out for food as well just be
not being a local some of the markets
are better suited for locals and
tourists we did hear that this market is
a little hesitant of photos and videos
at times and some stands don't let you
take any at all so we're gonna try to
cover it the best we can we also be
respectful and not get in trouble so
we'll see what happens so the first
thing we're eating at the market is a
bunch of mixed fruit with this like
chili sugar powder on top I thought it
was a big fat Seguin stuff but it's a
different brand so I'm not sure with the
same thing but it looks really good
[Music]
my research we found that the best
Kostas in the market is tostadas quake I
lost everything Alice and we got a
chicken Tinga one
Mikado and Grandma on it and beans also
so we unfortunately only ended up eating
at two places in the market we got here
really early and a lot of things weren't
set up yet things are definitely being
set up more now but we still think we're
a little too early to like fully
experience the market yeah we really
wanted to try the a load days with all
the fixings on it but the lady we're
looking for we couldn't find yeah and ER
yet so this other thing called Koyo I
don't know if that's how you say it but
this is how you spell it
um it's like this blue corn kind of
patty and they need put a bunch of stuff
on it but we couldn't find that either
so womp womp but that's okay it was
still really cool market it was fun
walking around and the food we did have
was good yeah there are a lot of street
vendors set up kind of on our walk back
through town so we're gonna just hit
those up and see if we can find the
things we're looking for so I'm not sure
if it's a saturday thing or a weekend
thing they have a ton of defenders out
on the street selling crafts souvenirs
you name it they have it so it's really
fun to walk around I'm loving this
neighborhood so far we haven't found a
location
so I got the peanut butter and
blackberry jam flavor I think they
switch up their flavors often so I'm not
sure if they always have this but peanut
butter ice cream is my absolute favorite
and this is really good
okay
[Music]
so I got my elote but without mayonnaise
cuz I can't eat eggs and I already feel
kind of sick from the church yesterday
so I don't want to make it worse
[Music]
it's kind of like dried corn I don't
know if it's supposed to be like this or
not yeah I just picked a bad stand
when some you lose some
[Music]
you're ordering those Brian firm but I
was like so that's what you try on don't
forget what we begin
I make up for that traditional Mexican
dish that is recommended to get by our
friend somewhere this potion the killer
[Music]
like very very colorful it was being in
here super exciting events like
I think it'll make it work
healing
[Applause]
Dominic texture first and I
[Music]
[Music]
our next major attraction for the day is
Volsky de chapultepec so this is
actually one of the largest parks in the
Western Hemisphere at just under 1,700
acres
we're not going to explore the whole
thing we don't have enough time or
energy we're pretty pooped but we are
gonna go to two of the most popular
attractions in the park we're gonna go
check out the castle that's done at the
end of the road behind us and the Museum
of Anthropology which we hear is a
really awesome museum we are kind of
torn if what we wanted to do Museum why
it's cuz we're not
I don't loves museums more than I do so
we don't go to them that often but we
hear it's a great museum so we're pumped
to check it out so lego couple things to
know if you decide to go to a castle you
cannot bring water in so we bought some
right as we were waiting in line but we
chugged it and thankfully are now really
hydrated you also cannot bring any
tripod so get our little bendy guide and
use for vlogging we had our stabilizer
we can bring that either or our
microphone so we're gonna cross our
fingers that where we left them with a
guard is fan
[Music]
all the signs are in Spanish so we're
not picking up a lot of information but
what we have learned is that in the past
of this area was a sacred place for the
Aztecs and imperial palace military
academy observatory and now it's a
Museum of national history so lots of
cool stuff inside lots of history art
swords and all kinds of cool stuff so
it's really
and also the views
[Music]
definitely check out all the other
[Music]
we both got tacos out past doors
Austin's here came a pineapple and also
came with these little
Papa frita little
you
our time in Mexico City has come to an
end we are so sad to leave tomorrow we
have a really early flight in our really
long travel day so we're cutting the
Mexico City logs here we absolutely
loved it here it was such a cool city
one it felt really safe I know that's a
concern people have but we felt safe the
entire time and that's even carrying the
expensive camera gear and whatnot so I
felt safe from you shouldn't be
concerned about safety coming here we
also just love that all the green spaces
so it's a massive city but we kept
finding all those cool little parks and
it just really added to the whole vibe
yeah that was one of my favorite parts
is the the walkable neighborhoods if on
a lot of streets they have a median in
the middle that it's like its own
sidewalk and it's kind of like a parky
kind of thing in the middle of the
street and then just falling
finding these little pockets of nature
and the treaties and the architecture
and this is just cool and it's extra
special at sunset that we happen to
catch last night so yeah so that and
also the amazing talk bill we can't get
over those so we wanted to rank each of
our top three pigs so we went to seven
top of shops total five on day one and
then one yesterday so yeah if you have
yet to see those votes go check them out
so you know which tacos were talking
about yeah so my number three was tacos
cleo goes like a sidewalk cafe taco
stand which a lot of them are but this
one was just cool looking so I had that
swatter on me which was just excelente
and my number two was al-quran amigo

just a madhouse but just the flavor and
the rapid service and just it was cool
and then my number one was LD losito

experience with just cool vibe Krauss oh

really
by I mean all of in a really cool vibe

second one is tacos quit Yoko's which is
the slaughter I meet one that Adam
mentioned and the guy was so nice he
gave us our tacos for free which even if
he did it's dope you might number two it
was just really good like try a
different kind of neat that we'd never
tried and you loved it and my number one
salsa oval seat oh that's a must do it's
a little bit out of the way but it's so
good and the vibe was just awesome like

there and it was just it was just a
really fun experience yeah we can't come
