    Turix is a very small taqueria in Mexico City that specializes in juicy cochinita pibil. It's…read morejuicy, mildly spicy and costs 31 pesos (about $1.50) each. If you have a gringo stomach, it could be challenging; however we enjoyed this location in Polanco. It's quite popular for a reason

    El Turix brought me straight back to the moment I first fell in love with cochinita pibil. I…read moreremembered it as my favorite bite in CDMX, went back years later, and it still holds the crown. The torta is absolutely legendary. A fluffy bolillo roll drenched in juicy, slow-roasted pork, tangy pickled onions, and a salsa that comes in swinging with just the right heat. That salsa alone could clear your sins. It's spicy, vinegary, addictive. I was sweating and smiling like a maniac. It's a tiny hole-in-the-wall in Polanco. Cash only, plastic stools, no fanfare. You order at the counter and eat fast because there's almost always a line of locals and tourists in the know. And they serve one thing: cochinita. You can get it in taco form, on a panucho, or in the god-tier torta. Honestly, get all three and thank yourself later. The meat is fall-apart tender and deeply marinated, full of citrus and achiote. The panucho, with that crispy bean-stuffed tortilla base, is underrated perfection. Everything is messy, hot, and dripping with flavor in the best way. El Turix is the kind of place that reminds you why street-style food is unmatched. No hype, no gimmicks, just absolute fire. A must every time I'm in the city.
