This is as sweet as it gets! Candy store after candy store…read moreline Av 6 Oriente. There are dozens of tiny candy shops all up and down this street. It's really hard to believe that there are so many that they have a candy street here, but there's apparently demand for it! They sell all kinds of wonderful sweets here- so many of them make me jittery from all the sugar! Mexican sweets tend to be sweeter than what Americans are used to. They're packed with tons of sugar! I felt like a kid in a candy store! Personally, my favorite are the ones made from caramel and wafers of goat milk crackers. Other favorites include the jellied fruit candies, and coconut candies. I went looking for chocolate covered grasshoppers, but nobody had 'em. Most of the candies were by the kilo, but some had them sold individually, and none of the stores seemed to mind selling a few pieces for a small handful of pesos. The clerks were all friendly, but they didn't give out samples. This is the place to go for souvenirs and sweet tooths alike.

Great candy shop in a historic area Mexico city and one of the oldest candy shops in the city (if…read morenot the whole country!). There's a huge selection of sweets, so you are bound to find something you like. I tried a few items and thought they were good...sweet.but not wayyyy too sweet either. Overall, the shop prices its sweet very reasonably...if anything, it's very affordable for those American tourists with USD. The only minor draw back is it's really a to-go shop. You order your sweets and everything is in a bag/box. There's no place really to sit around and enjoy your treats in their shop.

Very Nice & Mindful ladies, let Moni & I in when there were at the door ready to close it…read more It was Our last day in Mexico City, and we were Leaving at 4am to the airport. We grabbed some scrumptious truffles, small filled hard candy balls, and chocolate covered coffee beans. It was def cacao. Per Belgium standards, I think it has to be 63% cacao to be called chocolate; not milk chocolate (think of a Toblerone). Don't get me wrong, I like a Toblerone, but I'm a dark chocolate guy ever since I hit my 1st Belgium Chocolatier's shop. Great job, and thank you ladies!!!!

My friend's client/friend took us here to eat while we were visiting Puebla. This place is so…read morefancy! The restaurant is dimly lit and there was a guy carving lamb near the entrance! We had reservations and received complimentary bread to start. He ordered some drinks for everyone, which included beer, clamato, and some tequila. Even though the tequila was high quality and smooth, it was too strong for me. Next, he just ordered a bunch of tostas- there was roast beef, shrimp, and eel?...All three tostas very delicious and filling. I was getting a little full before my entree came lol. I looked over the menu and decided to order the shrimp with 3 chiles, which wasn't spicy at all. I also had pieces of the beef, which was very tender and flavorful. My friend offered some of her shrimp relleno dish, which was light and came with an interesting sauce. Everything was yummy and service was excellent! He made us order dessert, so we got the lemon ice cream tart with merengue. It was a nice ending to a heavy meal and everyone was stuffed!
