Last week when I went to pick up my mail at the Mailboxes Etc. office in Condesa, I thought to myself, I'm only a fifteen-minute walk from my favorite restaurant, Angelopolitano. So, I decided to have my afternoon dinner there.
Over the years, Alejandro and I have eaten at the restaurant so many times, that the owner, Chef Gerardo, knows us. Shortly after I took a seat outside, he saw me as he was leaving, and greeted me.
On this visit I ordered a couple of things from the menu that I have not had before. To begin, I had something that Alejandro frequently orders, roasted tomato soup.
I can see why Alejandro likes it so much. This is definitely nothing like a can of Campbell's tomato soup!
For my main course, I ordered a chicken breast in "pipián". "Pipián" is a sauce of pre-Hispanic origin that is made with ground pumpkin seeds.
It was served with frijoles and, of course, tortillas to sop up all that delicious sauce.
Another tasty meal at Angelopolitano!
