Stumbling upon unexpected treasures is something that keeps
happening here. In Mexico City, you can find things to do just by wandering
aimlessly. Even if you are walking somewhere with purpose, you’re likely to be
side swept by something interesting. Or in my case, something tasty.
Today, on our way to the ruins of the Aztec temple wedged in next to the giant Catedral Metropolitana, we happened upon the Museum Nuestra Cocina Duque de Herdez … basically, the Mexican cooking museum!
The first two photos are from their pre-Hispanic kitchen exhibit. The last two, below, are from the colonial period. I absolutely love the tiled wood stoves and the comales.
