hey guys this is Jewish hi everyone I'm going to take you today in the Merced Market the
Wichita market and the Jamaica market so make sure to book a tour Lisa we're in La Merced
market right now huge Public Market one of the biggest actually this is the one where
the train station goes directly into the market and here they sell mostly clothes but they
have a little fake flower market area cleansing area
we're going to welcome
American football fields
[Music] foreign [Music]
[Music]
okay
foreign
[Music]
I don't even know how to pick this up
one big bite of this thing
is
amazing
looks like McDonald's but nothing at McDonald's
there's so much flavor in this thing there's so many toppings in here we just learned that
everybody around
spicy did you guys try this place I think I had a bite of it yeah I feel like if you
ask me as a kid hey play your dream Taco oh yeah french fries burgers and this is it right
here
can handle all the slime
I'm appearing very weak right now to the locals not good
[Music]
okay all right this is our next stop have you heard of them well tamales many people
doesn't know about Tamale by itself means wrapped in a leaf so tamales can be wrapped
in corn Leaf Banana Leaf Agave Leaf any kind of leaf we have many varieties of tamales
and here in Mexico City we created this style of tamale it's deep fried Tamal so this is
like a way of recycling tomatoes for us the tamales are breakfast I'm really filling and
one of the cheapest breakfast that you can have the drink that I just give you for us
is the perfect pairing for Tamales this is something that you cannot find usually when
they have tamales but they don't have this this is called atole so atole is made of Masa
the same Masa and the Tamal but it's diluted in the water and then the Masa thickens the
drink and this is actually a beverage that traditionally many babies have in Mexico is
the mom cannot eat breast milk they will give this for the tamales you can grab food it's
like beans close it's another type of seed it's like beans and chocolate spicy
different it's like red bean soup but more musty did that make sense yeah yeah we're
eating Mexican breakfast one of the most popular one of the most cheapest pairings for Mexican
breakfast tamales and a toilet this is really filling very very delicious
it's really good it's a shredded pork and like it's like if I don't want the Outside
Inside is like pretty soft potatoey this really fills you up in the morning wow
we're obviously tourists here but there's actually a lot of locals here doing the same
thing we're eating yeah this is great this one is like you're feeling sick you drink
this you feel better and this is still pretty early in the day but it's already for so many
people
high cost products are way of eating it's not a fish by itself no anything that we can
have we can get it I just made so much peace in my mind he said Taco is a way of eating
it's not really a sad thing anything could be put inside a taco that makes so much sense
now
first part of the day these tacos are smaller more flavorful more fatty let's go
so many tacos all right more Taco Time
taco
oh wow this toppings are amazing can you imagine if that fanciest chick Burger you've got a
lot of extra toppings it's like that the taco not a fair comparison but yeah
[Music] we're now in the clothing section we're gonna walk and digest a little bit after
three stops literally five feet away from all the food [Music]
hello there's like literally one million garlic onion shops in this place and also like pretty
similar things I saw a lot of garlic what is Molly Molly literally means grinded salsa
or to grind so to have a mole by itself has to be a type of salsa or soup or like a puree
also but the rule is that has to have chilies have you guys heard of guacamole guacamole
can be this can be for example here avocado mole but also we have pumpkin seed Molly we
have green Molly fruit Molly so any kind so I recommend you to try some of the moles this
is one of my favorites this is almond mole oh dessert this is not my thing it's a little
spicy the first one the Almond thank you
I like the chocolate moles a lot mushy chocolate with more spices in there the darker ones
are like dessert
first I'm trying Molly that's not guacamole oh yeah this mole by itself is such an interesting
experience this one is the pumpkin it's really good we just tried like seven different ones
but there's still there's like 20 more to try to go through this pumpkin was really
good it's your vicious favorite very interesting presentation
um
this is how I imagined what a real Market looks like actually and everyone has so much
pride in their food their display they put so much effort and stacking everything nicely
and there's no fruit flies in here everything 's dry at least the whole thing that you see
here it's a big head so we're going to try tongue all right
pretty sure you just said four tongue tacos eat everything nose to tail even if it's not
eatable we make it just like the Chinese so so as you can see you can see these guys they
bring a whole beef head you can see the skull right now it's backwards so it's like so the
flavor that this thing has it's more of the Agana leaves it's like a smoky but
not too intense
it's time for more lime all right beef tongue
is great that could mean a lot of things I like how they only give you onion just too
you could taste the tongue
very soft and tender I really wish I didn't know what song no it's good
so with one Beefcake you can fed up to 60 people so you can see how much of a waste
it is when you don't need that she's asking if you like it guys
they say we're in the meat market now
all right we're in the butcher shop now it's a very male business
a lot of testosterone that means
that's so interesting I don't know about the tour is getting the same reaction as us you
know you [ __ ] mentally prepped us beforehand no no on the underpass there's so much to
buy here everything you could ever want it's in this market and actually I said like 300
small but it's impossible to tell how many there are in here yeah there's probably stalls
with installs it's like a giant outdoor Walmart but it's Market style this is actually the
second largest market in Mexico City before you can spend a whole week here you could
buy your Essentials food groceries everything doesn't
I don't know the rat poison is 10 feet away from the pool maybe that's cool though so
in Mexico guys it's very common to have this kind of a cocktails of beer because for many
many years our beers honestly were very bad so that's why we started to make beers more
interesting not to put like this chili powder to put like these seeds to put like these
even candies look
yeah yeah spicy beer and there's some sweetness it's like a beer from the carnival you're
not a beer person I'm a fan of them enchiladas like making is a show on its own oh it tastes
as interesting as it looks this is nice so I was really sleepy maybe it doesn't wake
me up in the morning
crossing the street to go to Mercado de Sonora and inside there there's the Witchcraft so
people say that these are two separate markets but yubish councilman is one because they
are Equestria from each other so this is a flower market but you're also gonna find food
in here there's more open space in this market there's less tourists here for sure this Market
is very colorful calm and quiet some music but it's just a very calm move and it smells
really good it smells good and colorful yeah just about all the flowers and vegetables
and then home vegetables is this actual coconut no you pick them up oh it's so good yeah I
all have a haircut for sure you guys want coconut I'll do coconut foreign
excited
hook in the water to straighten the coconut is the best it does taste like the packaged
ones but more refreshing and you know this is a real deal no preserve it is no sugar
no nothing oh that's yes thank you hey almost finish your mind you literally have to drink
water and liquid all day walking around I barely use the bathroom it's pretty hot here
use the choice
this is the biggest flower market in Mexico City it's 24 hours because a lot of the flowers
sold here they sell flowers for funerals so the funerals can happen at any time and these
flowers are actually mostly grown two hours outside of this area and those signs actually
show where they came from the flowers get trans pose of the temperature about three
four a.m they get transported every Hotel Boutique and flower shop buys from this Market
all these beautiful flower arrangements what I just literally means sandal like a flip-flop
no this is very characteristic from the area and Evelyn is going to tell you the story
we can get our hands on also and we can prepare our own salsa now that you have tasted Salsas
let's see how you can make one and maybe you can get a job here
okay so we want to make two senses the red one and the green one what's going on there
the marketing that I was telling you as soon as somebody enters they scream and like come
here they already know movies so it's like oh yeah can you help me chopping onions yeah
exactly all the ingredients okay it's going to be your salsa so it's not a problem you
don't need to eat it it's all good so we ate a lot of Mexican food now it's our turn to
cook it now we're making red salsa and then you have to twist the rest so as you can see
I am not just pushing it's just here and we can go all over because we want to grab every
single ingredient in our salsa it's the flick of the wrist
I'm gonna make the onions disappear now they're going to switch oh slimy very good job guys
who's better
she's going to be the judge okay okay the next one it has to be tomato or tomatillo
we're going to start to add all the liquidy things in ourselves okay so please it's up
to you how much do you want okay it makes us all oh my God it's like impressive how
this process going to every restaurant when they make all the street food every single
day they make their own salsa with love this is hard work if you want on top of your Huarache
or on yourself I think better in the garage right because I can lose a little bit of Flavor
now the next ingredient chili so let's add maybe three pieces and you try it may I do
something because it's missing a little bit of tomato okay yeah to do the liquidy look
ah this is a trick I hope my mother is not watching
all right let's go oh it's looking more like it now I do recommend now to you try yourself
is just a little bit in your hand and you let me know if you want more chips okay
perfect it's even a dry flute if it's missing chili and also salt belong to hair more than
100 years a little bit more I think it's a good amount okay so add as much as you want
secret ingredients
spicy now yeah I think I'm better as a tourist eating person than a chef this is just the
flavor I like the last one but Ming does it
more yeah exactly just like a little bowl so let's play them and then we are going to
make a tortilla but this tortilla doesn't have to be very thin it has to be a little
bit thick my tortillas very tiny
little tiny one yeah
so after this we're going to add the half of them but now from smashing okay yeah but
in that case is water because we're making dumplings after this we're going to cover
our beans and then we're going to make kind of like an American food man mine's not pretty
at all
it's mashing it okay oh perfect perfect afraid to make it flat almost like a tortilla wow
it's so pretty yeah it's like a pancake exactly
[Music]
[Music] all right we just made our own sandals looks like some sort of fusion I would say
that added some Asian influence there's a lot of lard on there it tastes really good
oh it's large
that's a chef special
for me this is good flavor good tomatoes very well done but needs more peppers for me but
it's actually better this way that you can taste all of the different vegetables all
of the different flavors to have a great great sauce Mexican style cheers
oh that's good because it hits you later yeah that salsas in Mexico it's very nice also
it has that heat at the end very good guys you're very good students thank you very much
thank you eating our own salsa cheers five star presentation you want to try it
salty just variety
is it just like Maize flour and water it's so good when you cook it open okay ingredients
I made a really cute one and I'm gonna get okay
the best thing I ate all day because I made it myself but actually I like this the most
really good I'm gonna stop in the food tour what a great way to wrap up this tour yeah
that's awesome I love that so we're gonna head to a different tour now with your [ __ ]
so we're gonna go and eat more food you ready I'm ready all right let's go
[Music] let's go
