    Mercado 20 de Noviembre

    Oaxaca’s food scene is really a tale of two cities, both equally delicious. In the morning, a dizzying array of eateries open their doors and vendors pop up, ready to help Oaxacans get their day started off right. But come sundown, things really get interesting, with a whole new crop of stalls and vendors opening up in their place to keep Oaxaca’s culinary parade going. Ask locals and they will tell you: In this city, the eats only truly come out at night.

    Parroquia del Carmen Alto

    As we make our way through the neighborhood, we’ll visit another iconic streetside business, this one of a family that’s been selling tortillas stuffed with chicken and mole since 1965. Now run by the family’s fourth generation, their stand has become a strategic stop for hungry workers heading for their evening shifts, hungry locals and, of course, people looking to fuel up before getting the party started.

    Museo Belber Jimenez

    Fueled up ourselves, we’ll next join the locals in a nearby park for one of the most traditional – and satisfying – of Oaxacan street eats, corn in a cup, perfect for strolling while snacking. Cup in hand, our night parade will next take us for an encounter with the heavyweight champ of Oaxacan late-night meals, the tlayuda, a large, thin and crisp tortilla that piled high with a variety of toppings. Like what the taco is to Mexico City, the tlayuda is to Oaxaca – cheap, filling, endlessly customizable – and we’ll visit a local favorite that’s been selling them since 1952. To finish, we’ll taste traditional Oaxacan sweets from a stand in a church courtyard and then sit down for – what else? – a mezcal tasting led by a young master distiller who is one of the few women making the agave spirit. It’s a fitting nightcap to an outing filled with the keepers of Oaxacan culinary traditions and their nocturnal work.
