Piñatas
27 Aralık 2019, Meksika ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Mexico is a country where multiple traditions have merged. The Mexicans have adopted Christmas traditions from countries like the US but of course their version of Christmas involves a piñata.

Usually throughout the year, piñatas can be found in the shape of burros, unicorns, cartoon characters and even Donald Trump.

But when December rolls around, one can buy piñatas in the shape of Christmas trees, reindeers, and even Santa and Mrs. Claus, though I'm not sure if Santa would put you on the naughty or nice list if you were to whack him open with a stick.

The most common piñata we saw was shaped like a star with seven points. Each of the points represents one of the seven deadly sins: pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth. Breaking the piñata meant breaking free of these sinful temptations. As a reward, you were showered by God's grace, traditionally represented by the fruits and peanuts inside the piñata but these have been replaced by candy.

Piñatas are broken during "posadas" which Mexicans host during the 9 days leading up to Christmas (December 16-24). The 9 days represent the 9 months of Mary's pregnancy, as well as Mary and Joseph's quest to find shelter before the birth of Jesus. Although some families still celebrate posadas with re-enactments of this quest, for many Mexicans, posadas are simply a time to party.Okumaya devam et

La Pitahaya Vegana
26 Aralık 2019, Meksika ⋅ ☀️ 20 °C
We were so happy when Boxing Day rolled around, not because we were hoping for any big sales (Boxing Day sales does not appear to be a Mexican tradition) but because all the restaurants were once again open.

We had selected the hotel we're staying in because of its location in the "Roma Norte" neighbourhood which borders the "Condesa" neighbourhood. Condesa in particular is teeming with vegan restaurants and our biggest challenge will be deciding which ones to include and which ones to leave out in the 9 days we have remaining in Mexico City.

For Boxing Day lunch, we went to "La Pitahaya Vegana", a completely vegan and gluten-free restaurant. Pitahaya is the Spanish word for dragon fruit, which may explain why all the tortillas they serve are pink like the fruit. Everything is made fresh at the restaurant, and the dishes are creative, colourful, and beautifully presented. We shared a trio of tacos, our favourite being the one stuffed with curried potatoes, but the show stopper of the meal was the Mole Mixteco, pink tortillas filled with tabascan bananas topped with rice and served on a bed of mole. Holy moly mole! The mix and mingling of all the flavours was just indescribably delicious.

La Pitahaya Vegana is a little pricey by Mexican standards but given the quality and presentation of the food, it was worth it.Okumaya devam et

Fat Vegan
27 Aralık 2019, Meksika ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C
Vegan does not necessarily = healthy.

To take a break from all the tacos we've been eating, we decided to go to the "Fat Vegan", a small and relatively new burger shack offering mainly burgers and fries. Since I'm not able to eat gluten, I opted for the Caesar salad with a side of fries. The Caesar salad was excellent and the fries were even better, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, exactly as I like them.

Roch ordered the Pancho Vegan burger, a black bean-based burger that required many napkins to eat. The burger had a distinct Mexican slant with its refried beans, avocado, caramelized onions, poblano pepper strips and almond mozzarella. Unlike the Beyond Meat burger, this patty was quite soft and required rotating the burger 180 degrees after each bite to eat the parts that had squeezed out of the bun. Like me, Roch raved about the fries, opting to dip them in a vegan chipotle mayo to give them added pizzazz.

Eating here was a great experience. The staff were very friendly and spoke excellent English. There's limited seating, just a few stools on the inside and a couple of small tables on the outside. Lucky for us, one of the tables freed up just as our meal was ready.

I fear if we keep eating like this, we will soon resemble the Fat Vegan's logo.Okumaya devam et

Vegamo
29 Aralık 2019, Meksika ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
I woke up hungry Sunday morning and we decided to fortify ourselves with a good brunch before embarking on our Coyoacan Walking Tour. We headed out to VegAmo and arrived shortly after they opened at 10:00 am. Good thing we arrived when we did because the place filled up fast and there was a wait list by 11:00 am.

VegAmo had lots of interesting dishes and many of them could be made gluten-free so that was a bonus for me. Roch and I both decided to order the Chilaquiles, described as a special Mexican dish with corn tortillas, black chocolatey almond mole, cashew cream, vegan cheese, avocado, black beans, red onions and sliced almonds. Since we were hungry, we asked for the optional vegan chorizo as well.

Believe me when I say that we didn't need to add the vegan chorizo. The bowl was so substantial that we both struggled to finish it, but struggle on we did because it was too yummy to leave any behind. The mole was spicy but not too spicy and the mingling of all the ingredients together made our tastebuds dance with delight.

Roch had ordered a golden milk with his meal and I had ordered a "Mazunte" smoothie touted to be anti-depressing and anti-inflammatory (almond cream, cocoa, cardamom, dates, cinnamon, banana and rice milk). My eyes were obviously bigger than my stomach because I had to ask for my smoothie to be put into a paper cup to go. Even after walking around Coyoacan all afternoon, I still didn't feel hungry for dinner. Our brunch was $23.65 CAD. What a deal of a meal.Okumaya devam et

Ciudad de México - semana IV
28 Temmuz 2019, Meksika ⋅ ☀️ 15 °C
Seit dieser Woche sind wir mit unserer Schule in neuen Räumlichkeiten - jetzt sogar mit etwas Aussicht über einen Teil der Stadt.

Momentan ist Regenzeit ⛈️☔ in CDMX und das bekommen wir diese Woche doch öfter zu spüren. Daher gehen wir eher in Museen, Cafés oder machen kürzere Spaziergänge. Spaß haben wir auch immer wieder beim kleinen Hinterhof-Kick ⚽ mit den Nachbarkids.
Ansonsten trainieren wir in den letzten Tagen regelmäßig im nahegelegenen Parque México - hier wird extra auf gleichmäßige Atmung hingewiesen. Und am Sonntagmorgen um 7:00 Uhr fällt der Startschuss für den 'Medio Maratón de CDMX' 🏃🏃 Über 20.000 Menschen laufen (bzw. fahren auch viele Rollstuhlfahrer) mit uns auf einem tollen, aber auch anspruchsvollen Rundkurs durch die Stadt. Anschließend gönnen wir uns natürlich Finisher-Tacos und Bier 🌮🍻Okumaya devam et

Adios playas y lobos marinos, fishes and girls in bikinis. After a great time in Baja California del Sur I took a flight back to Mexico City where I was supposed to meet a bunch of friends I made during my Mexican trip.

Maybe it was fate or even karma who hit me straight in my face, as I was back in the big city. Zero out of three appointments were executed. One friend after each other had to cancel their plans or were too busy meet me. Luckily my German Hermanos were in town. I joined them in a lucha libre event. For those who don’t know what it is, it’s this typical Mexican wrestling game where the wrestlers wear some colorful masks.

Overall I enjoyed my Airbnb lifestyle as well as the night scene of Roma Norte, Juarez and Hipódromo. I finally bought new shoes since my old pair of shoes were totally worn out. I used them way too long, most of my socks were totally dirty and damaged by virtue of all those holes in my shoes.
I found an online coupon website with an offer 400 pesos instead of 2600 for Blanqueamiento Dental Láser + Pulido + Limpieza. That was such a crazy discount I had to buy this online voucher and made an appointment at the dentists place. On December 2nd I went to the dentists to get my teeth whitened. You get what you pay for, with this super 20 usd deal I got a 15 minute dental cleaning and another 15 minutes of this laser treatment. The lady doctor told me in the end you don’t see much improvement since you only bought one session. Anyhow I wasn’t allowed to eat colored food for the next 24 hours. Maybe a second treatment in Brazil will make a bigger difference. Not sure though if I do it again.Okumaya devam et

Es gibt immer etwas zu entdecken

CDMX ist eine so große und lebendige Stadt! An jeder Ecke gibt es was zu sehen. Straßenkünstler die aktuell hauptsächlich den Tag der Toten vorbereiten, Verkäufer die dir was andrehen wollen oder Menschen mit gruseligen Verkleidungen mit denen du ein Foto machen kannst.
Ganz zu schweigen von der menge an Kultur und Museen! 2
Wochen reichen wohl kaum das meiste zu sehen.Okumaya devam et

Early dinner here. We each had 3 tacos pastor, and we shared a good sized bowl of charro beans. Good, but not as good as El Califa.
