As we were walking back after dinner at Temporal, it started pouring again. We decided to quickly duck under the awning of one of the taco shops that lined the streets.
There was a group of musicians also using the little shop as shelter from the rain. One of the guys saw us; waved us in…..and they started playing! Just for the other seated customer and us. It was a blast!
Sorry to say I didn't get the name of the taco shop…I tried to give the band a couple of pesos, but they declined.
So, the least I could do was to buy a couple of tacos….to go.
You gotta love CDMX……..
The next morning was our last in Mexico City. Our flight didn't leave until 1245. So we decided to check out the bakery that was right across the street from where we were staying. It was quite discreet, but we always saw a line and decided to check it out.
This was Panaderia Almuerzos and the breads and pastries looked so fresh.
So, of course we got……
Croissant, which was surprisingly decent; flakey, good butter, light sweetness….light and fluffy inside….and still warm!

Colonia Condesa, CDMX, Mexico
We took our croissant to the next block over; the Mercado Condesa.
And we got our caffeine fix.
All while taking in the neighborhood, like all those amazing dog walkers.

Soon enough we had to head on over to the airport. We even had an ok sandwich on our flight.
We had really enjoyed Mexico City. Our experiences, the people, the food had exceeded our expectations.
I'm sure we'll return soon.
Thanks for stopping by!
