The beauty of Crucecita is that is looks, feels and is Mexican despite its actual youth. Indeed, if you grab a cafeteria-style table in this very simple little diner, a fount of unadulterated Mexican home-cooking – it tastes authentically Mexican too. Start with caldo tlalpeño (a chicken and vegetable soup) before launching into a tlayuda (a large tortilla), or maybe enchiladas.
It does refreshing drinks too, like agua de pepino y limón (cucumber-and-lime-flavored water).
