Thanks for this nice article. Although Starbucks seems to be everwhere and definitely has had its impact on the small corner coffee shops, there’s still plenty of places to get a good Mexican Cafe con Leche. My personal favorite is Los Milagros en Coyoacan, but there’s a couple of other really good ones in La Condesa, Narvarte and Colonia Roma that I try to go to when I’m there. Back in the US I get my Mexican coffee supply from La Floresta Cafe.

I think it’s fascinating the history of the Chinese culture in Mexico. I didn’t realize where the biscuits and café chino concept came from until now. We have a few restaurants here that do the same but I always found it strange that serve café chino and then chilaquiles on the same menu, so I couldn’t figure out the Chinese connection. Thanks for the article!

In reply to Lynne. A bluebottle is a fly

Could someone explain what is a “bluebottle” mentioned in this article? Here in Australia it’s a nasty stinging jellyfish, not something I’d expect to find in a coffee shop!
