Dining in San Cristobal

Every area of Chiapas has a distinct personality and its own flavors and aromas that distinguish it from the rest and San Cristobal is no exception. It is a romantic and traditional city with a strong colonial influence, and an irresistible blend of morning fog mixed with the aroma of delicious fresh coffee.


The cuisine in this region is a blend of different indigenous and Spanish influences, resulting in authentic, flavorful fare. The most popular dishes are the saffron tamales, bread and chipilin (a legume soup), and chalupas coletas (similar to tostadas). Due to San Cristobal's unique beauty, it is visited by tourists from all over the world hence you can also find international cuisine, such as French, Italian, Thai, Indian, and Chinese.


You must try the typical beverages of the region as well, such as 'atole de granillo', which is a thick hot beverage prepared with corn flour and 'posh' and considered a spiritual drink by the Indians. Dining in San Cristobal de las Casas will definitely be a sublime experience that will heighten your senses.
