When you can sample a little bit of everything for under $5, we find ourselves eating tacos, tortas, tostadas, postres, chocolate, dulces, etc.
As much as I would like to enjoy a romantic dinner in a fancy restaurant with Eric, I don't want to spend $10 on a meal when I know we can eat just as well on the street. We will have sticker shock when we get back home and will need to readjust to American prices on everything.
The other night I had a craving for pizza. I just needed something other than Mexican food for a change. We asked around, actually we had to ask 4 different people and finally found Pizzeria Charlies. Not the best and we only finished 2 slices. The next day as we wandered the tourist zone, we found pizzeria restaurants everywhere. I guess we should have checked there first, because it took us at least an hour to find Pizzeria Charlies. It's true though....a Mexican would rather give the wrong answer than to say 'I don't know'.
We have 2 more nights in Oaxaca, our hotel is so awesome that we decided to spoil ourselves just a little longer. Will add photos to our next post. We then continue on to Mexico City to stay with friends of the family.
