Mexico’s Best Restaurant Expands Just in Time for the World Cup

Mexico City is a city of tacos. There’s a taqueria around every corner, in every neighborhood, feeding every meal from breakfast through late-night snacks. The universal appeal of the unpretentious staple — equally beloved across the city’s economic spectrum — might help explain why fine dining has been on such a slow burn here in the Mexican capital.

When the Michelin guide debuted in the city last year, it handed out stars to just 10 restaurants. The award that got the most attention was, arguably, the one that went to a taqueria.
