Los Hacendados

A very hidden place that is actually very present and offers creative presentation of dishes. Everything went well until I paid with credit card. I didn't insist they brought a terminal to the table. I paid for our late lunch and the bank reported me a suspicious activity on my card. Since I had not used it for a whole week before this meal, all indicators pointed to the restaurant. They denied responsibility, but from my online study Skimming is always the result of the actions of a creepy employee. So, go and enjoy the food, but pay with cash, or at least about it when you calculate your card.

The construction and improvements are amazing, beautiful. Excellent service, better food. From the road you can't stand it because it is in a small place. The food is very delicious and well presented.

This seemed to be one of the few places that had opened an evening on Monday (although it closes around 2000h). I was the only person who ate there, so the service was attentive. I chose to eat a local dish called pollo tocotlan, which I had never heard and which is not in Diana Kennedy's recipe book. Although it was obvious that it had come from the microwave, it was very good: the aromas of chicken and its sauce (with nopal I think and mild Chiles) included in two fibrous sacks. The salad I ordered proved to be a spinach with grapefruit slices, dried cranberries and walnuts. When the waiter brought what looked like a dress, I asked instead for oil and vinegar and this was quickly brought, the latter is balsamic. The house red was acceptable. The restaurant is located in a small courtyard on the zócalo next to San Francisco Hotel and behind an ice salon.
