Amaranta Restaurante (Francisco Murguia 402, Universidad, State of Mexico, Mexico City) — Amaranta’s menu offers an exploration of the best of central Mexican cuisine from start to finish. Chef Salas especially likes to get creative with pork in his dishes. One favorite is the pork jowl made with peanuts or pumpkin seeds, but he is also known for turning pig trotters into a type of carpaccio. For the veggie lovers, try the cactus salad or beans topped with fresh cheese. Of course, everyone ought to try some local mezcal or tequila as well. There are also more than 300 varieties of wine available, as well as a solid selection of Mexican craft beers.
