Walk into the smoke: you buy your meat raw, they grill it over charcoal, and you build your own tacos.

When to go: First time can feel chaotic; point, pay, sit.

The two stalls to hit

Stall 1 of 2 · On the Food Hall 50

Pasillo de Humo (the smoke aisle)

Get: Tasajo and cecina enchilada with tortillas, chiles and guacamole

Rows of grills; pick a butcher and they cook it for you.

Stall 2 of 2 · On the Food Hall 50

Comedor María Teresa

Get: Hot chocolate with pan de yema for breakfast

A locals' favorite in the market's comedores.
