Discovering Culinary Wonders Of Monterrey
If you adore mountains and Mexican food, you won’t find a better destination than Monterrey. Let’s explore its unique culinary scene with Eatagram.
Monterrey, a beautiful city in the mountains of northeastern Mexico, lures tourists and foodies from all over the globe with its breathtaking mountain views and distinctive Mexican cuisine.
So, what should you try first as you set foot in Monterrey? We absolutely recommend trying the iconic local specialty cabrito, roasted goat with spices. Local eateries serve it with charro beans and freshly baked tortillas. And, if you’re fond of street food, be sure to taste machacado con huevo, scrambled eggs with dried beef and peppers.
Monterrey is a personal culinary paradise for every grilled meat enthusiast. So, if you're one of them, try marinated skirt steak arrachera and spicy grilled sausage chorizo norteño.
If you can’t imagine your meal without a dessert, treat yourself to the traditional candies with milk and pecans called glorias. And be sure to savor pan de pulque, a kind of sweet bread soaked in the traditional Mexican alcoholic beverage pulque.
Monterrey stands out with its famous breweries Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma and Cervecería Cucapá , producing unique local beers. So, be sure to take a tour around these breweries to witness the brewing process and sample their best beers. Here’s to your culinary adventure in Monterrey!
Craft Beer and Drinks: Monterrey's craft beer scene is thriving. Visit local breweries like Cervecería Cuauhtémoc Moctezuma or Cervecería Cucapá to sample a variety of beers, from crisp lagers to robust stouts. For non-alcoholic options, try agua de horchata, a sweet rice-based drink flavored with cinnamon and vanilla, or jugo de pitaya, refreshing dragon fruit juice.
If you prefer soft drinks, be sure to cool off with agua fresca and sweet rice milk called horchata.
Local restaurants also offer contemporary cuisine. Be sure to savor unique international dishes with a Mexican twist. We adore sushi-takos.
So, pack your appetite and make your way to Monterrey.
