Monterrey

Very good seafood (even though it is far from the sea) but expensive.

Just a few blocks from the Palacio de Gobierno, this is a refreshing and bright place. It offers delicious coffees (espresso, cappuccino, latte, it's up to you!) and smoothies with natural fruits, as well as some home-made pastries. Mostly frequented by students, this little café is perfect for a lunchtime stopover. You can eat light, the desserts are prepared with love and fresh products. On the menu: a wide variety of sandwiches, burgers and bagels, accompanied by chips or salads. Nice.
