We try Oaxacan food for the first time in Oaxaca City, Mexico with a local on this food tour. Oaxacan Cuisine is known as the heartland of Mexico. Most staple Mexican ingredients are grown here. Even the cooking methods of the comal, hot plate, and grilling originated here. Come along on this food tour as we start out in the Mercado de la Merced where we try Chocolate de Atole, Salsa de Queso, Sausage, grind our own corn and make fresh blue corn tortillas for Huevos al Comal with Holy Leaf. Next we try some of the best Mamelas in town, stop at an artisanal Chocolate shop, make our way to Mercado Sanchez Pascuas where we get some juice and try out the native fruits and vegetables. Next we head to the Benito Juarez market, where we eat Chapulines, or grass hoppers. Last but not least we make it to the meat alley in Mercado 20 de Noviembre and then walk over to Comedor Leo and get some of the best Mole we've ever had in our lives. Last but not least we finish out our day at a nice restaurant, Las Quince Letras, to test out our knew knowledge and order a big Oaxacan dinner.

We're Faris and Lisa
 
A travel couple from Metro Detroit, MI. We met in business school and started traveling immediately post graduation in 2016 while maintaining automotive marketing positions. We’ve traveled to over 35 different countries together and still can’t get enough!
 
In April 2021, we made the leap and quit our 9-5 jobs to follow our dreams of full time travel. We sold our house, donated all of our belongings and moved into Tina. Now we document all of our travels via travel vlog style! Subscribe to our YouTube channel and Newsletter to follow along on our adventure as we explore North America.
