Mexico City “Americanized”? I don’t THINK so! I read a recent, misguided article in the New York Times on the so-called “American” influence on Mexico City’s food scene with growing dismay. As a food writer living here since 1998, I’ve spent more than two decades documenting the city’s evolving tastes. The piece oversimplifies—and distorts—a far more complex reality.
Mexico City has long been cosmopolitan. European-style cafés, German beer halls, Spanish tabernas, Chinese-owned “cafés de chinos” and the American-founded Sanborns all predate mass tourism and “digital nomads.” Thirty years ago the capital already offered small but strong representations of many world cuisines. Neither the so-called “Italian cafés,” Indian–Mexican fusion spot nor chef-driven taquerías cited in the piece fit a simplistic narrative of Americanization.
What has truly fueled diversification is not a few thousand foreigners but a new generation of Mexican diners—citizens who travel, study abroad and return with a sophisticated appetite for international cuisines. Demand for everything from regional Chinese or Italian, Noma-influenced tasting menus, artisanal pizza and high-end sushi has grown steadily, driven mainly by Mexicans themselves. Hype from Michelin and social media may attract visitors, but most seats are filled by Mexican customers.
The article also leans on the (grammatically incorrect) term “locals,” a vague label that invites stereotyping and sets up a false binary between “real” residents and outsiders.
Finally, repeating anecdotes about street vendors “dumbing down” recipes for Americans (and I also refer to a previous, absurd article) is unsupported and misleading. Mexico City’s street food remains vibrant, varied and spicy.
Globalization and culinary cross-pollination are not “colonization.” They’re how cities evolve—Mexico City included.

Lam Kee - Rio San Joquin 420, bajo el Circuito,  is a small, eatery specializing in one thing — pork knuckle rice — a classic Teochew (Chaozhou/Chaoshan) style dish from southern China. Here it is served with the addition of char siu. This is a style of “zhū jiǎo fàn” (猪脚饭) common in Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Southeast Asia. ————————————— Este es un restaurante informal especializado en una sola cosa: arroz con manitas de cerdo, un platillo clásico al estilo Teochew (Chaozhou/Chaoshan) del sur de China.
