El Caldero

San Cristóbal de las Casas


Perfect for a cold day, simple, friendly little El Caldero specializes in delicious Mexican soups – pozole (shredded pork in broth), mondongo (tripe) and caldo (broth). Although calling them mere 'soups' does them an injustice: these are more massive portions of thick, hearty stews than watery soups and they come with a spread of avocados, tortillas and salsas.

Vegetarian options, too.
