What's a good Halloween Night neighborhood for an English (and Japanese) speaker?

I'm just in town for some in between time.

I'd like to go socialize in your lovely city tonight, with a costume I found on a walk today

Ir a Teotihuacán sin tour

Hola gente.

Es seguro ir a Teotihuacán sin un tour? Es decir, tomarme el metro hasta la estación de buses y de ahí tomar el bus que va al sitio arqueológico.

Voy a andar solo. Que opinan?

Regional Food Recommendations (Estilo Sinaloa, Estilo Baja , etc.)

Hola / Hello! I have been very lucky to visit a lot of Mexico (Pacific side) and would like to share some of the regional cuisines with my family when they come to visit. We are going to Oaxaca, so that can be covered locally, but I would like for them to be ably to try Sinaloan style seafood, Baja style fish tacos, birria tacos, Tijuana style tacos, etc. Does anyone have any recommendations for where to take them in CDMX? Preference for more casual restaurants, doesn't need to be fancy, just delicious! any suggestions are much appreciated :)

Visiting CDMX over Christmas

I have traveled to Mexico City and love it. I will be visiting CDMX over Christmas, this time with the family. We will be staying in the Del Valle neighborhood. What should I expect between Christmas and New Year in terms of congestion and services being open (buses, restaurants, etc.)? Thank you for your help!

Irish in CDMX where's the Craic at?

My pal and I are looking for a bitta Craic and don't know where to begin. Save us from heading to an Irish bar?! Suggestions welcome for food/cocktails/disco music/where the Craic is mighty! 💚

After causing some confusion, I'm not after irish people or Craic cocaine. Just trying to find fun suggestions on what to do thats not the usual tourist crap. Off the beaten track fun and as I stated above, disco music/food whatever.

Tipping?

I am visiting Mexico City. I’m not sure how to tip at restaurants. I saw somewhere you tip before running the card? How does that work? What is appropriate to tip? Will all restaurants work like that?

Spanish Lessons Condesa/Roma Norte

Hi there - I have recently moved to CDMX and am looking for an in-person Spanish school/Spanish classes to take a couple of times a week for a couple of hours.

I have seen many quite ‘intensive’ classes of 4-8h for a week, but was hoping to be able to spread something out a little more regularly over the course of a few months.

If anyone has any suggestions or is a teacher themselves, please reach out!

Gracias a todos!

Lugar cerca de la CDMX sin mucha luz para ver estrellas?

Queria saber si conocen cual seria el mejor lugar, irónicamente, lo suficientemente cerca de la ciudad para ir un fin de semana, pero lejos que no tenga la contaminación luminar de la ciudad para poder ver estrellas?

De entrada se me ocurre Valle de Bravo? Muchas gracias!

Halloween parties in Mexico City?

Are there any good Halloween parties going on tomorrow night for Halloween?! 🎃 Would love to find a cool club or some kind of event to celebrate. I used to live in Mexico City for 5 years and recall lots of fun parties here but it’s been sooooo long that I don’t remember where they were and not sure how to find them anymore since a lot has changed here. Gracias !

Do films screened at Cineteca Nacional have English subtitles?

Hey everyone, I’m new to Mexico and I would love to visit Cineteca Nacional. The problem is I don’t speak Spanish, I’m not sure if Cineteca has English subtitles or it’s fully in Spanish.

Leather purse repair / reparación de bolsos de piel

Please let me know if there is a leather repair person or shop you liked, ideally near Roma Norte.

Por favor, háganme saber si hay algún reparador de pieles o tienda que les haya gustado, idealmente cerca de Roma Norte.

Tengo un bolso que es viejo y no vale la pena reparar, pero es especial para mí porque fue un regalo. Mi español es muy malo, pero mi amiga vive en la Ciudad de México y me ayudará. ¡Gracias!

I have a purse that is old and not worth repairing, but it is special to me because it was a gift. My Spanish is very bad, but my friend lives in Mexico City and will help me. Thank you!

Tips on visiting Mexico City?

Hi everyone,

My husband and I are traveling to Mexico city next week. And I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations.

We really want to do the hot air balloon overlooking teotihuacan pyramids but we don't know which company is the best to do this with and if it is trustworthy. We found some links on Viator, but don't know if that's trust worthy.

We were also thinking about attending a Luche Libre show and join in on food tours around the city. Please let me know if you have any recommendations/links to these.

Let us know if there is anything else we should try - we are there for almost 4 days so I think that's plenty of time to immerse in the CDMX cutlure.
