A lesser-known fact about Mexico City

Polanco's streets are named for writers and philosophers — Pujol serves its mole madre on a street named after the poet Tennyson.

The Weeping Woman of the Lake City

Long before Polanco's poets' streets, the Mexica heard a woman wailing over the island capital by night: 'Ay, mis hijos' — oh, my children. They counted it among the omens of the conquest. She is La Llorona now, weeping along canals and empty avenues, searching for the children she drowned.

The local landmark

Museo Soumaya, Mexico City stands as Mexico City's defining structure — the sight that anchors the city in memory long after the meal is finished.
