Today, following the suggestion of others of your reviewers, I took a noontime walk and had lunch at La Hormiga sandwich stand in Conzatti Park. I chose the popular Cubana and embellished it with their excellent salsa rojo. It was definitely delicious and the entire experience was delightful as I sat near the fountain to enjoy my lunch.

I had quite a few tortas in the 10 days I spent in Oaxaca, some in restaurants/cafes and some from street vendors. This was by far the best I had. 20 pesos and delicious. Need I say more.

Once you are brave enough to trust street food you should try this wagon food stand. It's fast & furious & is actually a good show just to watch the cooks turn out torts after torts. There are lots of choices. My personal favorite is chorizo with quesillo (cheese). You can take away in a paper bag or have your... More
