Phenomenal local food tour in Roma Norte. Every stop offered unique ingredients and dishes that spoke to the history and culture of Mexico. The food was pared with special drinks along the way. Our guide, Camila, was so warm, knowledgeable and thoughtful. It was incredibly well paced and every restaurant we stopped in was delightful. An absolute highlight of our trip to Mexico City.
