GASTRONOMY

The city of Taxco offers a wide variety of dishes that are prepared with ingredients of indigenous origin, such as the use of ground corn in bean, squash and plum tamales. Here you also can try fiambre, an original combination of cold cuts, fruit and vegetables bathed in olive oil and apple cider vinegar. A local favorite is the Guerrero-style pozole, a hominy soup with pork or chicken. You can also indulge in cecina (salted meat), barbacoa de chivo (goat), pan de muertos (sweet bread) and jumiles (grasshopper-like insects) prepared in a sauce with green chili, tomato and garlic.
