The center of the neighborhood is the Alameda Park with its Morisco Kiosk, located at the intersection of Dr. Atl and Salvador Miron Streets, near Metro Buenavista.[9] The kiosk was designed and built in the late 19th century by José Ramón Ibarrola to be the Mexico Pavilion at the World’s Fair of 1884 in New Orleans and of the Saint Louis Exposition of 1902. The structure is completely made of cast iron, which was in fashion at that time. It is thought that the iron came from the Carnegie Steel Company of Pittsburgh. It consists of panels that can be disassembled and a glass cupola. After these events, the structure was brought back to Mexico at the beginning of the 20th century and installed on the south side of the Alameda Central. While it was here, it became the site of the national lottery drawing. For the Centennial of the Mexican War of Independence, the kiosk was moved to make way for the Benito Juárez Monument. The residents of the barrio petitioned to have the kiosk moved to this neighborhood.

It is one of the most traditional canteens, not only in Santa María la Ribera, but also in the city. The waiters are those gentlemen who have been working in this place for years, so they know and consent to the usual clientele and for first-timers, they will ensure that their glass is never empty. The food deserves special mention: it's delicious! Whether you order a shrimp broth, some carnitas or appetizers, everything has a very good flavor.

Vasconcelos Library is one of the Mexico City's biggest and most accessible public libraries. Loaded with books, there's also art and exhibition room in one of the city's most alluring public spaces. Is the masterpiece of contemporary engineer Alberto Kanach, a sort of modern conclave built in the middle of a surrealist garden in Buenavista, Mexico City. Inside, one can wander through the hundreds of square-shaped shelves that embellish its crystal halls. Even though their archive only contains 575 thousand books (collected through its nine years of existence), its subject classification is large. It also has a children’s library, a multimedia room, computers and reading stations

Noted as on one of the most beautiful religious facilities in the city, Sacred Family is probably one of the least well-known, too. Built in highly unusual (for Mexico City) Byzantine style, the complex is well worth a visit and speaks highly of the stonework and masonry being done at the turn of the last century.

A gastronomic market that arrives to complement the bohemian, international and contemporary proposals that characterize the neighborhood. Here you will find murals that manage to represent the tints of a neighborhood that has two centuries of life. The place invites neighbors, foreigners and sweet tooth of the CDMX to try their offer.

The beauty of this restaurant is that it is located in the backyard of a classic house in Santa María la Ribera. María Ciento38 is in the street that bears the same name as the neighborhood. To enter you must cross a corridor that takes you to a terrace that makes you feel at home campirano. From the region of Palermo, Sicily, Antonietta Di Pasquale, the chef who heads the kitchen of this family establishment, decided to adjust the seasoning of her dishes by importing her main supplies from Italy.

This is the new and tiny bistro of the creators of La Chirindonguería. The best: good, beautiful and cheap. The menu consists of tapas, salads, pizzas and sandwiches. Open with a water sweetened with piloncillo or a glass of wine for 35 pesos. In the menu the Italian predominates and they have several sparks of interesting combinations of flavors. We recommend the piadinas romañolas. On Sundays the kitchen becomes nomadic and they move to the tianguis of the Lagunilla.

The menu follows a simple and powerful plan in which you choose the main ingredient and salsa for the chilaquiles. Imposing them, if I did not know that the chips are bulky, I would have bet that it was a plate of more than a kilo. With nopalitos and onions, refried beans and enough cheese and cream.

This establishment focused solely on making handmade tamales, in large quantities and with perfected flavors; the place is very small, it is not exactly very elaborate and although there are a couple of tables, the majority sale is to take away. This is one of the culinary hiding places of the city that is worth trying; There are many tamales, but few are so traditional, requested and exquisite.

The quesadilla, that delicious dish that chilangos (people from CDMX) knew how to improve by adding other ingredients besides the one that baptizes it (cheese). But how to make it even more incredible? In the nineties, Las Jirafas came up with the answer: giant quesadillas. With 45 centimeters you earn your adjective to pulse (if you do not have a tape measure at hand, stretch your arm and from the elbow onwards imagine your quesadilla). To accompany, the beers come in accordance with the dishes: yards.

The place is incredibly small, painted in a modest mint green and seems to be divided in two. On the right is the counter where they serve you with pancakes and cookies in sight, in addition to the typical trays with the bread of the day for you to choose. The second part faces the street Eligio Ancona, is roofed and there is a wooden table completely rustic. Try the Nutella filled chocolates, they are tanned on the outside and soft on the inside. The coffee is served in a large and very concentrated cup, but if you ask for cappuccino, the frothed milk softens it.

In Santa María la Ribera, seven years ago, Andrea began selling street chilaquiles. At first he timidly announced his chilaquiles, until the neighborhood and its tree-named streets gave him confidence. Then the announcement was loud. Now he does not sell on the streets because the chilaquiles have their tiny place in Cedro 158. There are green of chile de árbol, red of huajillo and the best ones of red habanero sauce. They can go with egg, chicken or steak; there is pot coffee, steaming and delicious; horchata water and soft drinks. The place has three tables with its four chairs and the stove with huge pots for sauces. Simple and well arranged, with familiar taste, like the beautiful house of an acquaintance.

Comixcal is a clay oven used in the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. There they prepare the totopos, which is what they eat most in that warm region, already very close to Veracruz. Comixcal is also an Oaxacan restaurant in Santa María la Ribera that takes special care to spread food throughout the state of Oaxaca. That is why its menu is somewhat unusual. In Comixcal the most special are the dishes from other parts of Oaxaca, in addition to the capital. The state has 8 regions, each marked by the seasoning of a particular climate and geography, and those are precisely what they prepare. From the Isthmus of Tehuantepec they have garnachitas; from the Costa Chica a yellow mole of fungi; of the Central Valleys the tlayudas served with chepiche, huajes and radishes.

Casa Imelda is a community center, just off the Alameda, and that began as a project to restore and renovate the historical house it now occupies. The center also provides artists space to realize their art projects, usually installations. The Textil Dos Coyotes workshop is one of the better-known workshops in which artists collaborate on textile techniques applied to art and design are practiced. Projects are realized with a loom, but there’s also handmade felt, dyed with natural dyes and more.

A satellite of the beloved (and creepy) UTA bar, Paranoid Visions isn’t just a taste of the hangover to come. Bohemian, and characterized by a peculiar distribution of musical genres that intrigue more than just the kids from the nearby Saturday el Chopo Market. Both places draw on the 1980s music and culture scenes in Mexico City, a decade that’s perhaps never left the city. Unlike the UTA, Paranoid Visions possesses some sensational sculptures, souls who seem to be forever watching, waiting for a drink. The music may very well intoxicate you, but any party here will be part ceremony and part last-one-for-the- road. What a road it is.

Pulque is an alcoholic beverage made from the fermented sap of the maguey plant. It is traditional to central Mexico, where it has been produced for millennia. It has the color of milk, somewhat viscous consistency and a sour yeast-like taste. The drink's history extends far back into the Mesoamerican period, when it was considered sacred, and its use was limited to certain classes of people. After the Spanish Conquest of Mexico, the drink became secular and its consumption rose. The consumption of pulque reached its peak in the late 19th century. In the 20th century, the drink fell into decline, mostly because of competition from beer, which became more prevalent with the arrival of European immigrants. There are some efforts to revive the drink's popularity through tourism.

We could say that La Malquerida is the amusement park for pulque lovers. Its variety of flavors and its careful elaboration processes will leave you with the square eye. You find pulque de piñón, strawberries with cream, mango, kahlua, tequila, red wine and even what may sound crazy like chocolate Sneakers. Their prices are accessible, 45 pesis a liter of pulque or 50 pesos a jug; They also have promotions like that in which they collect 50 tickets from La Malquerida and exchange them for 3 jars of pulque or 3 caguamones, because this place does not live on mead alone.

Bello Café is a new cafeteria: it has two years of existence and its owner is a 21-year-old boy who studies biology at the Autonomous University of Mexico. Its atmosphere is bohemian, with books waiting on a shelf for customers who want to read them, craft beer and mezcal and a dog friendly environment. Its gastronomic offer is not wide, but that does not mean that it lacks quality: the coffee, which they bring from Oaxaca, Puebla and Veracruz, has the perfect roast and the mezcal has the seal of the house: it can be tested in the moment, or you can buy the personalized bottle and take it away.
