Having been last summer to the Konzerthus in Stockholm, the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, the Barbicon in London and Symphony Hall in Berlin, both very fine, I can say that Nezahuaycoyotl is as good as any hall I have seen - and I have been in ALL the major halls in the US. The sight lines here are excellent and the acoustic is superb. It is beautiful, functional and welcoming - one of the great treasures of Mexico City.

This quiz is a challenge for your mind while also being a fantastic social event. I’ve visited Playa several times, now staying here a bit longer, and I’ve met some great friends by attending this quiz. Laura is a delightful host, with excellent questions and the venue offers a great service during the night. My favourite round is the music round, but really I no longer go to win, rather to hang out with my friends!

I went to Noche Mexicana alone as I was solo traveling in Merida, and had a blast. Take an uber to Remate de Pasaje Montejo. I arrive just at 8pm on a Saturday in June and there were already ancianos performing a traditional Mexican folkloric dance. The seats weren't quite full but as the night wore on more and more people filled the seats. I highly recommend trying the marquesitas from the street vendors (this is a traditional crepe-like desert, served with queso or nutella or combinado if you want both. You shouldn't pay more than 30 pesos for 1 combinado.) I also bought magnets and an infant dress for my younger cousin from the vendors. For pricier items, haggling is acceptable. I speak Spanish, so if you speak English expect gringo prices from some of the vendors that don't have items labeled. I recommend going to vendors where prices are labeled to get the best price if you don't speak Spanish -- because they cannot inflate the price for you.

With all the cool things we did while in Cancun, this ended up being my teens favorite. They did a spectacular show and dinner was good. Our personal pirate Norman did an excellent job taking care of us. Anyone that loves a good dinner show, I highly recommend the Jolly Roger. Please note, you do sail for the 3 hours, so if you get motion sick at all, take medicine (or just drink a lot while on board).
