Santa Prisca Pozoleria

santaprisca
($)  Tradition rules on Thursdays at Santa Prisca with verde (green) and blanco (white) pozole served at this hole in the wall basement restaurant. All orders of the Guerrerro-native soup come with a plate of appetizers including miniature chile relleños (made from picante jalapeños!), taquitos, chicharrones (pork rinds), avocado, and tortilla chips with bean sauce. Don't come if you're in a hurry or want a quiet afternoon because lingering and loud music is part of the Thursday ritual.

just the facts, ma'am: opens on Thursday afternoons at 2 until the pozole runs out. There's an unpredicatable ambiance here which is half the fun of going regularly: sometimes it's a rockin' fiesta til after midnight, sometimes a slow, sweaty afternoon of leisure (and soup!).

don't miss: live music from popular local musicians, a shot of their own mezcal especially brought in from Taxco, or a large pitcher of the freshly made and unbelievably addictive limonada.

meet me @: Santa Prisca is located in Colonia el Limon on the inbound lateral of 200, Avenida Victor Hugo. Most cab drivers know how to get there and will likely drop you in front of a hardware store. Go next door and follow the music down the stairs.
