Hodophs insider tipArrive at noon when they open. This is a lunch-only restaurant and they stop seating around 6pm. The tuna tostada with chipotle and avocado is the single most important thing you'll eat in Mexico City. The red and green snapper is their signature - order it whole.

Teotihuacán
The ancient city of the gods — 50km from Mexico City. Climb the Pyramid of the Sun and Pyramid of the Moon for views over one of the ancient world's greatest cities.
Visit website
Hodophs insider tipGo on a weekday, arrive at opening (9am), and climb the Pyramid of the Sun immediately before the heat and crowds build. Hire a guide at the entrance - the history context transforms the experience. Avoid Sundays when Mexican nationals get free entry and it's extremely crowded.
