The Day of the Dead, better Mexican
Tonight It's Halloween, it's the Day of the Dead, it's All Souls' Day, it's All Saints' Day, It doesn't matter what nomenclature you want to give it, the best thing is that you celebrate it under whatever tradition or religion it is. The important thing is always to celebrate (see article by Rafa Rojas) . I personally have booked in Tepic, a Mexican without props where I hope to try, in addition to its tasty food —free of entertainment—, a bit of that ancient essence typical of Mesoamerican cultures.
Tepic, with avant-garde aesthetics and without farandulero props.
Here, if you're not into margaritas, with their explosive and at the same time light mix, it's best to order a light Mexican beer, or, why not, the drink with which you want to honor the 'disappeared' person (euphemism for dead) , as the Mexicans do when they watch over and honor their deceased throughout the night in the cemetery eating and drinking what they liked in life. An ancient Mesoamerican tradition that, apparently, would have the purpose of commemorating the ninth month of the solar calendar of the Mexica culture.
Beef huarache, a typical Mexican craving.
It is true that the most representative tradition of Mexican culture a has come down to our days with that cristina patina typical of colonialism, but we don't care about that now, we just want to try that intense chicharrón cheese flute stuffed with huitlacoche (a thin layer of grilled cheese, rolled up and stuffed with this mushroom) , that beef huarache (a Mexican craving with an oval corn gordita spread with refried beans, covered with beef and avocado sauce) or that chicken breast bathed with green mole (Remember that one of the legends attributes the invention of this sauce to some nuns from a monastery in Puebla, but it would make more sense if it came from the Aztec mastery when it comes to grinding ingredients).
