What You Will Do
Nationally known for its mole, tacos, sandwiches, candies, and fried masa snacks, the city of Puebla is a food lover’s paradise.
On this tour, you’ll feast on tacos árabes with smoky chipotle salsa, which were invented not too far from the Zócalo. You’ll try a crunchy pelona, a sandwich of shredded beef, Mexican cream and salsa served on fried bread. You’ll try a tasting of artisan candies as well as visit the oldest market in Puebla, La Acocota, where you’ll learn about typical Mexican ingredients and taste native fruits and indulge in a taste of mole poblano, the spicy, chocolate-tinged sauce that Puebla is famous for. You’ll also try the cemita, Puebla’s most famous sandwich, filled with pounded-thin, breaded steak, stringy quesillo, sweet chipotles, and bitter pápalo herb, all on a lightly crunchy roll. And finally, we'll end with a taste of an artisan liqueur. You’ll finish the tour knowing why Puebla’s food scene is unlike any other!

Led by a born-and-raised Poblana, this tour offers an inside look at the city’s exciting food scene, which is completely distinct from Mexico City. (And it’s hard to navigate unless you know a local.) You’ll try a half-dozen popular foods, including cemitas, mole, spit-roasted tacos árabes, and Puebla’s nationally recognized candies.
