List of Locations: Somebody Feed Phil – Mexico City (S1:E6)

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Below is a list of places in Mexico City (Ciudad de Mexico–CDMX) that Phil Rosenthal visited in the Netflix Original Somebody Feed Phil. I love Mexican food and Phil does such a great job at connecting with locals to showcase some noteworthy restaurants and food stands in CDMX.

Below is a List of Locations from Somebody Feed Phil’s CDMX episode. We absolutely love PHIL!

#1 Amaya

Phil visits Amaya eats tacos and fried soft shell crab. How do you eat a taco? Hold it in your hand and only move your head to take the bite! Phil also drinks some Papa Diablo Mezcal with a slice of orange and worm salt.

Address: Amaya, Calle Gral. Prim 95, Juárez, 06600 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

#2 Maizajo

Maizajo is a tortilleria serving artisinal tortillas and the best you’ll ever try!

Address: PERMANENTLY CLOSED

#3 El Huequito – Al Pastor Tacos

El Huequito is famous for bringing the Al Pastor taco to Mexico City. Phil is ecstatic that this exists and even buys tacos for some visitors passing by.

Address: Calle Pennsylvania 73, Nápoles, 03810 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

#4 Rosetta and Panaderia Rosetta by Elena Regadas

Rosetta serves wholesome Mexican cuisine made with locally sourced ingredients. Head across the street to Paneteria Rosetta for donuts and pulque and amaranto bread.

Address: Rosetta, Colima 166, Col. Roma Norte, 06700 Cuauhtémoc, CDMX, Mexico

#5 Cantina La Mascota

Phil goes to a classic cantina that serves food and beverages in Centro Historico. At La Mascota, buy three drinks and you’ll get free food. Phil tries the carnitas and even buys cheese from a vendor.

Address: Mesones N 20 Planta baja, Centro, 06050 Cuahutemoc, CDMX, Mexico

#6 El Moro

El Moro churreria serves churros and hot chocolate. The dessert looks heavenly.

Address: Churrería El Moro, Frontera 122, Roma Nte., 06700 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

#7 Xochimilco

Phil heads to Xohimilco, a UNESCO world heritage site, to meet with Enrique Olvera, the most famous chef in Mexico City. Xochimilco is located about 1 hour south of CDMX.

Address: Xochimilco, Mexico City, Mexico

#7 Fonda Margarita

Phil and fixer Alex Roa head to Fonda Margarita for Mexican breakfast. They dine on chicharonnes, eggs and beans (huevos y frijoles), steak and pork in tomatillo sauce. The morita (sauce) looks amazing!

Address: Adolfo Prieto 1364, Tlacoquemecatl del Valle, 03100 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

#8 Barrio Tepito (Mercado de Tepito)

Phil heads to Barrio Tepito to eat some traditional street food in the market. Phil tries migas la guera, a pork soup with tortillas and menudencias tacos (offal/innard). The Mercado de Tepito is the largest and most notorious for counterfeits and stolen goods in CDMX. It’s moniker is Barrio Bravo – or the “fierce neighborhood.” It’s also a great place to find a bargain. You can spend an entire day here and barely scratch the surface of the 72 blocks of storefronts.

Address: Tepito, Morelos, Mexico City, CDMX, Mexico

#8 Pujol

At Pujol, one of the world’s 50 best restaurants (but no Michelin stars yet), Phil tries baby corn in a blend of chicatana (flying ants) and mayonnaise, Enrique Olvera’s famous Mole Madre and pulque ice cream with guava for dessert. The Mole Madre is made by reheating mole from 3 years ago to amplify and unify the flavors–imagine a vertical sauce blend. It is also served with a traditional herb.

Address: Tennyson 133, Polanco, Polanco IV Secc, 11570 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico

#9 Enrique Olvera’s Home

Phil is invited to the Olvera residence and is given a special treat, a plastada “quesadilla” made by Aldo, Enrique’s son.
