Oaxaca

Aviva Klein
The obsession with small town Mexico continues. Oaxaca is a mid-sized city in Mexico’s most southern state by the same name. There is no beach here. A quick long weekend get-away for two adults. We did a one-day activity outside of the city to the petrified waterfalls, and the rest we hung out in the city and explored. Walking tour is always helpful! This itinerary has a high end hotel with a private cenote and private hot-tub. Very luxe.

Criollo
@aviva
Incredible set menu with innovative pairing menu (Mexican Sake anyone!) . We paid ~$300 CAD for two set menus and one drinks pairing. The setting ranges from covered and open patio, inside communal dining and a chef’s table. Service is on point.

El Destilado
@aviva
Another tasting menu for us. It was very good and had some of the same wines from Crillo. If you are going to do one tasting menu I would suggest Crillo - i found it to be cheaper and better. There is also a downstairs section of this restaurant that is not a set menu. The food looked really quite delicious.

Cutest brunch/ lunch spot. There’s a line but it moves fast. Food is tasty. Good vibe.

Really delicious ceviche and marinated seafood choices. Feels like a chain and sort of quick service-like. It was tasty!

Xochimilco
@aviva
A neighbourhood of Oaxaca. It has lovely murals and a different vibe than the old city and yet still very Mexican. It's worth a walk through and there are cute cafes and some shops.
