Coox Hanal — Restaurant in Mexico City

While I cannot attest to the authenticity of the food here compared to that in the Yucatán, nor compare this to other places specializing in this kind of food, I can certainly attest to how tasty it was and to how much we enjoyed our experience here. While the sauce in which the Chamorro (pork shank) looked as if it would be incredibly rich and robustly flavored, it was a surprisingly mild taste. Never fear! The homemade salsas offered more than made up for that. Meanwhile, the Papadzules in pepino sauce were also surprisingly mild in flavor but made for an excellent contrast in flavor and color. The atmosphere was very much a locals only sort of place and, by getting there shortly after opening time, at 12:15, we were able to avoid the crowds.

I bet with some little redecoration and a full restrooms renewal. This restaurant will...

We had the Sopa de Lima, a Taco de Cochinita Pibil, a Papadzules and a coco-milk dessert which name I forgot. We also added the Agua de Horchata and Agua de Guanabana.

While the Taco was good and the Papadzules was absolutely amazing (though both were so heavy that we could eat only one each), the soup was a bit too sour for my taste. Nethertheless a really interesting flavour, that we didn't find anywhere else. The Aguas were horrible due to the loads of sugar added and the dessert quite blunt.

So if you're only coming for a classic quick lunch or dinner, that's a total recommendation. Sit on the terrace, in the back, where there are less people and the music is not very loud and you'll enjoy great food for...
