La Tradicional

Yumm any time of the day, this kitchen has it all! La Tradicion is located amoung other small restaurant in the NW part of the Zocalo, just tothe right corner of the Palacio Municipal (the governor's house) and to the left of the Cathedral, again everything happens right at the Zocalo (the central plaza) where youcan admire any celebration that happens year around, and the best thing is that you can take a seat at the terrace side of La Tradicional and have a great meal along with the site. When my mom and I arrived to Puebla we were so hungry and it seemed kinda late for us to pick a place, La Tradicional made an exception and feed us that night. Because we were going t be here for just a few days, we knew we needed to get our food adventure started soon. The staff (any one really) were so kind to let us know the popular spots as well as their recommended places to eat. We thought it was the kindest thing for them to do since it seem like a good idea to take the local's advised aside from the ones we see on yelp and other vacationing sites. Every morning we would stop in and have breakfast here. EVERYTHING in their menu is delicious, from the classic enchiladas verdes with fresh squeeze OJ with fresh seasonal fruit to their specialty cemitas and totopos. Their bread for the cemitas is soft and feels fresh, not like other places we visited and had cemitas where their bread was hard and had an day-old taste to it, not here! everything is always so fresh and made daily. Everything we had here for the whole week that we were in town was delightful, but one of my favorite dishes to order one cold morning was their Sopa Azteca. small plate with all the dry ingredients and a hot pot of broth to the side, just perfectly poured over once it arrives at the table. the crispy chili on top gives the soup that perfect spicy kick to the rest of the broth. To be here in Puebla was part of my mom's and my bucket list to visit, aside from the food, museums, fed. buildings, historical statues and hidden historical treasures. Traveling abroad to visit magic towns and some wonders of the world is a must do while visiting, but La Tradicion keeps it real with authentic dishes. So if you are in the area, stop by, enjoy the singing from the people from Puebla , grab a chair and order you won't be disappointed.

Cuando comes en restaurantes pequeños o de comida rápida, no esperas mucho del lugar. Al entrar en La Tradicional con esta idea en mente, me sorprendió gratamente. El servicio es excelente, con una gran actitud de atención al cliente y se esfuerzan por atenderte aunque solo compres un trozo de pan y un café. El sabor de la comida es bueno, especialmente el aderezo de ajonjolí dulce que ponen en la fruta, ¡delicioso! Ofrecen desayunos, pastelería y tienen una variedad en su menú. Si estás en la zona de Las Ánimas y buscas algo rápido pero bueno y bien atendido, este lugar es una excelente opción.
