Dining
Dining in México City dining can be one of the most memorable experiences of your trip. With over two thousand restaurants to choose from, México City has something to please everyone. Branches of some of the world's most famous restaurants are represented here and there are some local restaurants that are known for their quality, the world over. Every cuisine imaginable is represented along with local favorites such as Tortilla (or Aztec) Soup, Chilies Rellenos and Cochinita Pibil, a tender pork loin, wrapped in banana leaves then seasoned and baked, Yucatan style. If you are happen to be a seafood aficionado, rest assured the better restaurants will get fresh supplies daily.
Mexicans tend to have their main meal between two and four in the afternoon. This meal is usually eaten at a leisurely pace and is very often combined with a business meeting or family get-together. The dinner hour usually starts much later, around 9 PM, and usually consists of a somewhat lighter fare or even just coffee and dessert. If you are planning on dining late, it is probably a good idea to call for reservations, at the same time check to see if a dress code is enforced.
