Eats at the Condesa Tuesday Market – Mexico City
As luck would have it, we were in Mexico City until Tuesday, which gave us the perfect opportunity to check out the Tuesday Condesa Market (a massive market in Condesa with fresh produce, meat, and lots of food vendors) that I had read about in Good Food in Mexico City.
