The rainy month of September marks the start of the patriotic holiday month, we\u2019re all anxious to celebrate El Grito, even though we won\u2019t have the customary long weekend this September. During this month we can enjoy delicious chiles en nogada, highly emblematic of the season, thanks to the freshness of its ingredients, including walnuts and pomegranates that we can only find during this time. We shouldn\u2019t forget the variety of happenings around the city, taking advantage of the fact that we capital city dwellers have returned full of energy for the rest of the year. Among this month\u2019s activities, we find new art exhibits, food festivals and innovative food markets, ideal to enjoy with the family.<\/span><\/p>\n

Take advantage of these holidays and visit our recommendations on what to do and where to eat in September at CDMX.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mercado San Genaro<\/strong><\/p>\n

In recent years, in Mexico City, we have seen a huge amount of food markets opening at different areas of the capital. These spots are ideal for those who work in the offices of the area, as well as for neighbors who seek new food options near their home. Mercado San Genaro, located on Mariano Escobedo, in the An\u00e1huac area, is one of the newest proposals in CDMX and, despite having recently opened, has quickly become one of our favorites thanks to its spacious design and vast variety of dining options. Here you will find more than 50 shops, yes, you read that right! Fifty shops offering a variety of regional and international foods for every taste and palate. <\/span><\/p>\n

After having visited the market on several occasions to try different dishes, here are our favorites: <\/span><\/p>\n

Wokchop<\/strong>: Specializing in Asian flavors, it offers delicious burritos and rice and noodle woks. Their signature dish is the fried rice wok with poached eggs and roast pork belly.<\/p>\n

Beef Bar<\/strong><\/p>\n

Within the Camino Real Hotel in Polanco, one of the favorite restaurants for the carnivore residents of the capital is the renowned Beef Bar. A premium steakhouse present in several cities worldwide, including Monaco, Moscow and Hong Kong. The kitchen at Beef Bar specializes in the best Black Angus Prime and Black Angus High Choice steaks. The meat is marinated in a proprietary spice mix produced in France, roasted in broilers at very high temperatures (750-840\u00ba F), instantly burning the spices, thus forming a delicious outer crust with a unique smoky taste. On our most recent visit, some of our favorite dishes were the beef and veal tartare, the nopal and pork rind salad, and the perfectly cooked ribeye garnished with jalape\u00f1o mashed potatoes, concluding with their spectacular raspberry souffl\u00e9. If you are meat lovers, you\u2019ll love this place!<\/p>\n
