Castacán - Review - La Condesa - Mexico City - The Infatuation
"Castacán, run by the same crew behind Contramar, is vibrant with colorful tiles, loud music, and metal folding chairs. It’s got a lot going on, unlike the menu, which is refreshingly simple: just Yucatecan-style pork tacos and tortas, plus vegetable versions thrown in for good measure. The highlight is the $2.50 taco de cochinita pibil—slow-roasted piglet drenched in juices that’ll leave your hands (and probably your shirt) a mess, but the one with lechón con castacán, tiny pieces of fried pork belly, is a solid pick. For a tad more flavor, add avocado for 75 cents. Castacán keeps the drink menu straightforward, too, with Carta Blanca beer, rosé and white wine by the glass, and super sweet but totally great Boing guava soft drinks. photo credit: Andrew Reiner" - Guillaume Guevara
