Mexico City is well known as one of the biggest cities in the world and also for the delicious Mexican food that you can find at every corner. In the city you can find a lot of amazing restaurants. However, I want to tell you a bit more about my favorite restaurant in Mexico City: "Azul Historico" (Click here for more information). In Azul you can find amazing, delicious and fresh dishes of excellent quality. I really like that the chef, Ricardo Muñoz Zurita, adds his personal touch to every single dish without missing the essence of Mexican traditional food. I really enjoy eating at Azul because it has an amazing environment and the service is excellent. The decoration of Azul Historico makes you feel like you were in a real Mexican "pueblito", with homemade tortillas, salsa de molcajete and with an exquisite variety of Tequila and Mezcal. What I really love about Azul is that you can go for breakfast and enjoy typical Mexican breakfast. Of course, you can also go for lunch or dinner. It does not matter at what time of the day you visit - you will always have real Mexican food! Azul Historico is a very dynamic restaurant. Every month, the chef Ricardo organizes "Festivales", where he either celebrates an individual state of country and in a partnership with an important chef from the celebrated region creates an entire menu dedicated to the state and its specific culture or customs or he celebrates a specific ingredient on which he bases an additional menu. This month, for example, it is the Festival of "Mango", with different dishes using mango as the principal ingredient from starters to desserts. I consider Ricardo a very unique chef because he plays with all the different ingredients from very simple typical Mexican dish and the result is that he makes it a piece of art. I really recommend visiting Azul Historico in September when the "Festival de los Chiles en Nogada" is celebrated. This is one of the most important and iconic dishes in Mexican cuisine. It is an absolute experience from the decoration of the table to the decoration of the plate. Personally, I love the "enchiladas de jamaica" in Azul. The variety of flavors is delicious and you can order them with tortilla azul - a kind of tortilla made of blue corn. Another one of my favorites are the "panuchos de cochinita pibil" or the "sopa de tortillas", which is also an iconic dish. For me it is really difficult to say which is my favorite dish because when no matter what you eat there, it is always an explosion of flavors!
