Take Two translates the day’s headlines for Southern California, making sense of the news and cultural events that affect our lives. Produced by Southern California Public Radio and broadcast from October 2012 – June 2021. Hosted by A Martinez.
Mexico City is a place known for its rich traditions in art, history and music, but nothing captures the imagination – or the senses – like the city's food.
From chocolate moles, or crispy flautas to the street taco, in all its shapes and sizes: the city's got it all.
“That's what makes eating in Mexico so enriching,” said Daniel Hernández, Mexico bureau chief for VICE News. “All of a sudden there are food magazines targeting young people or creative people [and] that's raising the awareness of food for everyone."
Hernández stopped by the studio with Take Two to share some of his hard-earned tips, garnered during years of reporting in the country’s capitol.
