  • Oaxaca’s food scene is really a tale of two cities, both equally delicious. In the morning, a dizzying array of eateries open their doors and vendors pop up, ready to help Oaxacans get their day started off right. But come sundown, things really get interesting, with a whole new crop of stalls and vendors opening up in their place to keep Oaxaca’s culinary parade going. Ask locals and they will tell you: In this city, the eats only truly come out at night.
  • As we make our way through the neighborhood, we’ll visit another iconic streetside business, this one of a family that’s been selling tortillas stuffed with chicken and mole since 1965. Now run by the family’s fourth generation, their stand has become a strategic stop for hungry workers heading for their evening shifts, hungry locals and, of course, people looking to fuel up before getting the party started.
  • Museo Belber Jimenez
    Fueled up ourselves, we’ll next join the locals in a nearby park for one of the most traditional – and satisfying – of Oaxacan street eats, corn in a cup, perfect for strolling while snacking. Cup in hand, our night parade will next take us for an encounter with the heavyweight champ of Oaxacan late-night meals, the tlayuda, a large, thin and crisp tortilla that piled high with a variety of toppings. Like what the taco is to Mexico City, the tlayuda is to Oaxaca – cheap, filling, endlessly customizable – and we’ll visit a local favorite that’s been selling them since 1952. To finish, we’ll taste traditional Oaxacan sweets from a stand in a church courtyard and then sit down for – what else? – a mezcal tasting led by a young master distiller who is one of the few women making the agave spirit. It’s a fitting nightcap to an outing filled with the keepers of Oaxacan culinary traditions and their nocturnal work.
