La Pulquisima Saloon de Degustación
@arthurcostamanso
A good place to try pulque, the ancient ancestor of mezcal and tequila. Their cocktails are quite nice. You can get a large pulque for less than 4 USD.

Central de Autobuses ADO
@arthurcostamanso
This is where you catch the ADO bus to Puerto Escondido (amongst other destinations) It's a very comfortable bus with AC/bathroom. Takes 11 hours to Puerto Escondido and costs around 40 dollars.

CRUDO
@arthurcostamanso
Oaxacan-Japanese fusion! Fine dining, so make sure and make a reservation. A truly unique and exquisite experience with fresh ingredients. Chef is super talented and friendly. Unlikely you'll have a meal like this anywhere else in the world.

Memelas San Agustín
@arthurcostamanso
Another famous street stall. This one sells memelas, quesadillas and tlayudas. It gets pretty busy, so be prepared to wait and possibly not have a sitting spot. Salpicon memelas are a crowd favorite! I don't believe they stay open past 4pm.

Mercado 20 de Noviembre
@arthurcostamanso
One of the two main tourist markets. This one is basically just food, so it's an excellent option for a cheap breakfast or lunch. They have everything from goat stew to hot chocolate. Don't forget to visit "Pasillo de Humo" or the "Smoke Corridor", where the vendors sell you fresh meat and grill it on the spot. Also be prepared for each one of them trying to get you to eat at THEIR STALL!

Although I spent 10 years of my childhood in Los Angeles, California, I have spent most of my life in my hometown: São Paulo, Brazil. In 2014, I decided I needed a change and moved to Melbourne, Australia on a whim! Since then, I’ve visited 45 countries through full-time solo traveling and have lived in countries such as New Zealand, Thailand, China, Georgia and Mexico. In 2020, I began documenting my nomadic journey through my YouTube channel, Gringo Nation.
