After spending the whole morning walking around and climbing one of the pyramids in Teotihuacan, we exited the tour bus near Torre Caballito. We walked slowly to our hotel and on the way we spotted Taqueria el Caifan and decided to just stop by. It’s not on any of our lists, so we’re taking a big risk here.
As soon as we sat down, they offered a bowl of guacamole topped with tortilla chips. I cannot resist that because I love chips and it’s my first guacamole in Mexico City.

We ordered one Tacos Al Pastor and one Taco de Bistec. Both were quite plain. The bistec (beef steaks) is lightly seasoned (if any at all), which I understand because adding salsa to it makes sense.

However, the Tacos Al Pastor is not as flavorful as the one we tried from Taqueria Los Cocuyos, and it did not offer any unique texture like the one from Taqueria El Patriarca.

The only redeeming factor is that it’s our third taqueria, and we have a fair idea of what we like and how good Tacos Al Pastor can be.
