Mexico City provides for a cosmopolitan shopping experience that runs the gamut from trinket stores to major malls. For the purpose of knowing where to find things, you will need to know the whereabouts of four categories of stores: supermarkets, major shopping malls with department stores, boutiques, and traditional markets.

You need to know that this country's eats are not the taco "shell", ground beef-and-baked-beans fare that Tex-Mex has made it out to be.

In that same vein, many describe Mexican cuisine as one of only three "cuisines" in the world, the other two being the ones just mentioned.

This is a really difficult category to describe because there are literally thousands of places to go to, including dozens that are worthwhile. Because it is such a competitive market, night clubs are constantly reinventing themselves and places that are packed one weekend are deserted the next. For that reason it would probably be best to Ask Sam.
