Criollo

https://criollo.mx/

Enrique Olvera of Pujol fame has teamed up with fellow chef Luis Arellano and architect Javier Sánchez to bring his brand of cookery genius to the food city of Oaxaca. The focus at Criollo – open since mid-2016 – is on local and seasonal ingredients to create authentic Oaxaqueña cuisine. The seven-course tasting menu changes daily but always includes snacks, a salad, catch of the day and desserts. Located within a stylish, bohemian UNESCO heritage house, guests enter the courtyard dining room via the kitchen as tortillas are freshly prepared on one of four wood-burning ovens. Comfort food classics include tamale filled with Oaxacan cheese and homemade mole.

Local specialities include crispy duck tacos in red mole and oregano-scented rabbit. The wine list also features notable Mexican vintages.

Tour Hierve el Agua

Hierve el Agua is a unique place where you can walk on impressive rock formations and even swim in the pools, fed by natural spring water, on the top of a cliff with endless views of the surrounding mountains. From the springs, the water descends by rugged cliffs that are more than 50 meters high.

It is also an important archeological site where more than 2,500 years ago a complex irrigation system was built by a Zapotec indigenous group.

Temazcal Oaxaca

https://www.temazcaloaxaca.com/learn-more

The temazcal is the prehispanic version of a sweat lodge. We heat volcanic rocks over which we place our medicinal herbs soaked in water to create steam within the temazcal structure. These herbs are aromatic bronchodilators that help cleanse your respiratory system and detoxify your body. At the end of the ceremony we perform a light herbal bath to wipe away the sweat from your body.
