My little Mexico

Ben told me about Rancho Liborio a few weeks ago. He texted me that there was a huge Mexican supermarket on Colfax and Havana and that I would love it. I assumed he meant Avanza and was not speaking to him as usual, so I basically just ignored it.

After a brief interlude of talking, he told me this place was better than Whole Foods and that I would love it.

It was fantastic. They had a hot bar with pupusas, tamales, rice beans, enchiladas, everything (except of course fideo that help me God, I will find in this city one day). There was an aisle marked especially for yucca and tons of tostones and plantains.

The only reason that I left after an hour was that I was getting cold and sighted a big old spit of tacos el pastor at Tacos Y Salsas. BEST TACOS EVER. Someday I will get back to Mexico City but this little strip of heaven called Colfax will do nicely for now.
