The number one place we have been so excited to visit in Mexico for food (comida oaxaqueña) is Oaxaca! Ciudad Oaxaca is known as having the best food in Mexico due largely to it’s geographical location, cultural and biological diversity.
The street food in Mexico never disappoints, especially here in Oaxaca. Last week we published Part 1 of this Oaxaca Street Food Tour - I will link it here: https://youtu.be/pWz_Kw2XYxE. If you didn’t see it - definitely check it out to see us devour some delicious treats!
Today we are back on the streets of Oaxaca bringing you Part 2. In this Oaxaca Street Food Video we show you what to eat in Oaxaca at night. The highlights include: Elotes, Tacos, Tortas, Tlayudas, Empanadas, Marquesitas, and more! You won’t want to miss this Oaxacan Food Tour - grab a snack before watching, it’s sure to cause hunger pains!
Who are we? We are The Country Collectors! For the past 9 years we have been traveling the world in search of unique experiences that fuel our fire for life! This journey has taken us to 39 countries together and we have no plan of stopping anytime soon. Our goal is to inspire you, even just a little, to get out of your comfort zone and check off those items on your bucket list. Like my mom says, never say I should have, I would have, or I could have - JUST DO IT! No regrets! - XOXO - Heidi & Adam
