Restaurants in Mexico City

You need to know that this country's eats are not the taco "shell", ground beef-and-baked-beans fare that Tex-Mex has made it out to be. In fact, the Mexican cuisine genre contains more variety than any other type of cooking, except for French and Chinese. In that same vein, many describe Mexican cuisine as one of only three "cuisines" in the world, the other two being the ones just mentioned.



 

Sports and Fitness

Search our page on fitness and sports in Mexico City to find a club that suits your interests. Included are golf courses, gymnasiums and a variety of specialty sporting clubs.

This is a really difficult category to describe because there are literally thousands of places to go to, including dozens that are worthwhile.

For that reason it would probably be best to Ask Sam.
