This is my favorite section in Chapultepec — which is double the size of New York’s Central Park. Right on the water. There’s also a lovely lake front library and bookstore.

One of my favorite cafes in the city. The menu is small but mighty. I personally love the chilaquiles and jugo verde. They also have fresh mandarin juice, overnight oats, avocado toast, and other fueling breakfast options.
