Whoops, been 8 days. Let's see.
Last Sunday I finally met up with Rachel and husband, as they gave me a food tour of a Sunday tiangui near us, based on their expertise of a friend having given them a tour the week before. :) We had barbacoa tacos in crowded outdoor dining :eek: and later some seafood -- I had a shrimp empanada, which I think was tasty but I was paying more attention to the conversation. Lots of produce there, also cheese, I got parmesan and I think pancela.
Since then I've had enchiladas, walked around Zona Rosa, found a Sukiya and had a beef bowl, had really bland Chinese food that came with insanely hot sauces, discovered that too much capsaicin can induce diarrhea as your body tries to flush out 'poison', twice gotten my currencies confused and treated 100 pesos as 100 yen or one dollar.
Oh, and seen so many bollards. Systematically protecting street corners, or mid-street crossing points. It's neat. Also a couple of protected bike lanes -- one protected very well, with high barriers, another less so, with rumble bars.
It's amazing how PM2.5 air pollution can vary by 10x over a day.
