So glad to have found this adorable corner of lovely pastry and coffee in the Mercado Coyoacán. Barista Ana Victoria provided sweet, attentive service. I enjoyed the coffee she prepared for me and really liked the freshly baked sweet roll filled with crema de nata that she told me was baked in their artisanal bakery. The display case held a variety of cakes and pastries, all beautiful and tempting.
Being a tourist with limited time in CDMX I asked Ana Victoria for sightseeing, souvenir buying and eating tips. She provided a wealth of suggestions; my favorite tip from her was the weekend buffet at El Gallo de Oro a cantina/restaurant in the historic center.
I look forward to returning to La Vicoca on my next trip and trying more of those luscious baked items and yummy coffee drinks. read more
