Cochinita Power — Restaurant in Mexico City

We were so confused to why there are to Cochinita Powers just around the corner from each other. We meant to go to one, specifically for the decor for instgram pictures but somehow ended up at the other.

The menu has about 5 variations of the exact same thing, which was also confusing. We ordered 3 things off the menu, and they were all with the exact same insides.

It tasted fantastic, but if we knew the menu was all just pulled pork, we wouldnt have gotten that many things..... kind of odd.

No one speaks english here but that is okay, google translate and pointing to the menu works just fine.

All that being said, it tasted great. tacos are a must, forget everything else....

I've included photos of both locations (again, which are a minute walk...

Cocina Campechana in a flashy setting. This compact fast-food joint specialises in cochinita, a dish from the state of Campeche similar to pulled pork in the States. The time I went, the service was a bit slow and not particularly enthusiastic (this could be to do with it being a Saturday morning but nevertheless...). I had the biggest torta option which was tasty but kind of fell apart half way through. I also thought the pricing of the soft drinks was a bit on the cheeky side. Overall, I can see the appeal of this place but for me it didn't quite live up...

Comida: Cochinita pibil de buen sabor y textura, un poco acida para mi gusto pero sabrosa, como amante de la comida yucateca pedi para empezar una sopa de lima y esta deliciosa muy aromatica, adecuada temperatura si tiene el sabor fuerte de la limansin amargar el paladar, la torta de cochinita con chilaquiles es muy buena tambien recomendada, los panuchos me dejaron mucho que desear a pesar de que la cochinita es su componenete principal la tortilla y los frijoles son elementos indispensable para lograr un sabor, la cochinita lo opaca, el agua de horchatacoco algo pequeña ennun vaso jaibolero pero muy buena igual aromatica consistencia espesa y bien fria puede ser un muy buen postre si se convirtiera en champola, las salsas son 3 una negra, una verde y una roja tatemada, la verde es la mas picosa pero la más sabrosa de las 3.

Lugar: muy agradable a la vista y sus letras neon sonnun gran toque. Medidas sanitarias: completas aunque ya sabemos que el tapete no sirve de nada.

Precio: 150-200 por persona.

Atención del personal: se hace el pedido en una hoja, amables y atentos muy bien por ellos.

Ubicación: cerca del metro San Cosme.

Les di 4 estrellas por el detalle del panucho creo pero es un lugar al que...
