The famous Tostadas de Coyoacán - Street Food in Mexico City

So they have all these, which is pata, which is actually the meat of the pork, which they make it with vinegar and it's actually delicious. Then tinga de pollo, which is chicken prepared with tomato and onions and peppers. It's a little spicy, but it's pretty good. Cochinita, which is a typical dish from Yucatan and they make it with achiote and pork. It's like pulled pork. Mole con pollo, which is like Mexican curry with chicken. Bistec, which is actually beef. Picadillo, which is beef as well, just seasoned. And these are mine. So it's chicken and picadillo, which is beef but seasoned, that one right there. Then there's also salpicón, which is also made of pork and it's seasoned with vinegar, onions and tomatoes, mushrooms, champiñones, ceviche. Ceviche is made of fish. Then they just get me cutlery, which is funny because I usually eat these with my hands. That's how you're supposed to eat them, but they look great. And... So we have ceviche and then pulpo, which is octopus, chicken, tuna, crab, surimi, shrimp. They're always at the end are shrimp. And they also have empanadas of shrimp, octopus and crab. So this is what it looks like. I'm gonna have a bite. So this is the picadillo one. It's actually good. Tostadas are very good, especially when it's hot like today. They also take carts here, so that's why I decided to come here. There's a lot of noise. But it's definitely a nice experience. They have aguachilla there, which is made of shrimp and another seafood, I think octopus and lemon. You can see the piñatas there. And this is actually, I think, the most prominent place where they sell tostadas in Coyote. And it's right beside the market. I'm gonna finish this. This is the chicken one. But yeah, I mean, they just asked me if I wanted something to drink. Yeah, I'm gonna finish my tostada and then I'm gonna see you again in a bit. As you can see, this is a very big restaurant. It's this big. So it's that isle right there. Then this isle. It's that island, sorry. Then this island. Then that island over there. Then there's another two right there. It's the most typical place in Coyoacán to come and have tostadas, which is actually a very traditional dish to have here. Yeah, the service is great and the food is also very good. Just so you know, in Mexico it's customary to leave tips. So when you dine somewhere, you leave between 10 and 15%. So 10%, it's just like, if the service is very good, you can leave tips. Of course, there's no limit, but it's customary here. Yeah, and if you come here, they sell fish there. They have chicken there, fish. They have sheep there. Or lamb. Produce. Fruits, vegetables. Yeah, I mean, you can find really anything here. That's the thing about Mexico. In Mexico, people don't buy their food in superstores. In Mexico, people buy their food in markets. Which is actually better because everything is much more fresh and generally much more cheap. Just cheaper in general. Yeah, right now I'm just looking for the exit because it's actually a very big market. Those over there are chiles rellenos and quesadillas. Yeah. Right there. Well, as you can see, there's lots of people, so it's a little bit hectic today. Then that's chicharrón, which is pork skin but deep fried. And it's on fat. That's funny because it's like two levels. I haven't seen that anywhere. But yeah, that's what the market looks like. We actually got out on the other side of it. Those over there, those are tlacoyos. And they're stuffed with habas, which is green beans. Habas are green beans, sort of. But not really. It's a different thing. No, yeah, it's green beans because then there's soybeans and soybeans. Those are the ones that I'm not talking about. The ones I'm talking about are green beans. Yeah, they're really good. And this is a bus, so this is a public transit here. And to get in there only costs 10 cents. So that's really affordable. One US dollar is like 20 pesos. You're gonna still buy quite some stuff with 20 pesos. It's not super cheap as it used to be, but it's not bad. So right now, those are pambazos. Pambazos are actually another dish. It's kind of like drunk food. It's not very healthy food to have, but they're delicious. It's just like a sandwich, but it's covered in salsa that they made with red peppers. Dried red peppers. And then they cover the bread in that salsa. And then they stuff the bread with... They stuff the bread with potatoes and Mexican sausage, which is chorizo. So yeah, I mean, this is what the main market looks like. One of the main streets in Coyoacán. And over there, those are coconuts. So they open the coconut and then you can drink the water and eat the coconut with chili, salt, or lime. So yeah, I mean, there's all sorts of stuff that people are selling. I hope you enjoyed this second part of the video. Right now, I'm going to head to the greenhouse, or vivero, where they sell all different sorts of plants. And it's actually also one of the biggest parks here. So people go work out there, they go for a run, they go for a walk. And right next to that big park is the greenhouse, vivero, where they sell all these different sorts of plants. And yeah, I'm going to see you in a bit.
