So on my last day of my Mexico City trip,I had a little free time in the morning -So I headed downstairs from my hotel and just started walking in the Roma Norte neighborhood.
This neighborhood is absolutely loaded with many beautiful restaurants and cafes-so many food options,but for some reason when I'm on vacation,I love to find the spot that nobody is paying attention to or maybe just is off the beaten path.
El Inicio is truly that-this is the most quiet unassuming looking cafe located on a street that is just filled with incredible spots-When I saw it I had to check it out.
When we walked in we were the only customers and there was only one 2 workers and I'd say maybe about 8 tables-all empty.
It was morning and I hadn't really gotten enough chilaquiles on this trip,so when I sat down I knew exactly what I wanted.
I ordered the Chilaquiles Verde with Chicken and Eggs.(160 pesos/$9.19 USD).
The wifey just got a bowl of fresh cut fruit(63 pesos/$3.62 USD) & a fresh Green Juice(77 Pesos/$4.42 USD)
The food came out in under 15 minutes,considering we were the only customers in the restaurant.
When I tasted the fruit I was not surprised as it was just the freshest fruit I've ever tasted in my life.I noticed that about most produce in Mexico City-just so fresh and tasty.
The same for the green juice-just perfectly made and so perfect of a green juice-super organic tasting yet somehow not overly sweet.
Now my chilaquiles-I'd never had this dish made with chicken before-I've had green sauce and I've had with eggs but not with chicken & I'I got to say it was so good-the chips served soft yet still crunchy,perfect green sauce,the eggs and the chicken blended so perfectly-it was an incredible dish and I enjoyed it tremendously.
I've got to say this was a really great spot and relatively Inexpensive last meal on my trip to Mexico City and to anyone who finds themselves in Roma Norte anytime soon and wants to try some quality chilaquiles-do yourself a favor and stop by this high quality unassuming cafe. read more
