Did Las Quinze Letras move? Went looking for it in August, but the space seemed unoccupied with no sign of a relocation? Were they on vacation?
Hmmm… Las Quince Letras is still in the same place on Abasolo. They were closed briefly for remodeling but that was a year or so ago. Even when Celia is giving talks and cooking all over the world, the restaurant is open.
Chiles En Nogada—my favorite dish!
Steve makes them once a year for a friend’s birthday party
Getting excited about our upcoming trip to Oaxaca! would love to have a late afternoon cocktail in your rooftop garden if we can all fit it into the busy DOD schedule. looking forward to seeing you
Yes, of course! I’ve got mezcal. 😉 Email me with your availability and I’m sure we can come up with something. Btw, the Panteón General is, and will be, closed due to earthquake damage.
We just got news that the Panteon General is closed due to earthquake damage. The front wall has damage so they will not let the vendors or rides be in that location. It was mentioned that the DoD activities that are normally are there have been moved to other locations. Is there a web site where I might find out where the activities have been moved to?
There is a link on my latest blog post to the Día de Muertos schedule of events: https://casita-colibri.blog/2017/10/14/difuntos-on-the-move/
