The dining area was booked, but the host asked if I would be okay w/ a seat at the kitchen bar. The service was fantastic! We were able to communicate fine w/ my limited command of Spanish. They gave me a QR code to scan so I could get the latest menu offerings (which they seem to change often).
They brought out a couple chips w/ three different levels of spicy, pepper salsas. When they tell you something is spicy, it means something different than what you get service in the States. Holy cow! Delicious, but I was already sweating before they brought out the appetizer. I ordered the Green Ceviche appetizer. I could only finish half of that before I had to tap out to save room for dinner.
I planned on getting two different tacos, but one was going to be enough at this point. They were watching me as I tried the app. I’m so appreciative that they didn’t just bring everything out at the same time. I changed my dinner order to just the Gaonera New York Dry Aged taco. I was delicious. For dessert, the Wood Fire Cheesecake Berry Compote did not disappoint and the coffee to accompany it was the best. At the end, they brought a pufferfish decoration with some dessert cookies.
The Chapulin is definitely worth a try if you’re in Mexico City! Thank you!
