An obligatory stop for those looking for traditional places to eat in Oaxaca is without a doubt the roast meat aisle at Mercado 20 de Noviembre in Oaxaca City. The markets of Oaxaca are colorful places full of movement and living traditions and have been the traditional meeting point since long before colonization. Almost the entire November 20 market is devoted to the sale of food, as raw material or already prepared. The eastern aisle is a corridor where beef jerky, jerky and chorizo ​​are sold in a traditional way. Right there they will put the meat on the grill and sell you everything you need to accompany it: guacamole, onions, cilantro, avocados, lemons, chili peppers, tomato, tortillas, beers and soft drinks. A delicious experience.

It is bordered by Aldama, Miguel Cabrera, Mina, and 20 de Noviembre. To its left is the Church of San Juan de Dios, which is built upon the site of the first hermitage built in Oaxaca and dedicated to Santa Catalina de Alexandria in 1526.
