La Bipo

"Opened in November 2006 and located on the side of Allende Park, La Bipo (Bipolar) is a place that lives up to its name. The ground floor feels like an ideal place to talk at length with your friends, on top is pure party. You cannot miss the famous “Quesadilla de Jamaica” accompanied by Mauricio Garcés, a mezcal and Lulu pineapple frosty soda with chili powder, or a well-known Paris Naco, which is a combination of brandy and soda Lulu. But if you have more of a craving for beer, you can request a Carta Blanca and eat delicious Apaches to scare off hunger, which are beans and tortilla chips covered with melted Oaxaca cheese. What a delight! The concept is that of a bar you could find downtown, but with a fresher feel thanks to the kitsch decor touches made by Esrawe Studio, pure Mexican design. When it comes to music and if you go between Wednesday and Saturday, at the top you can get into the party with the DJ or band. Or if you're downstairs, you can choose something to put on the jukebox." - Leolab

"Co-owner Diego Luna, one of Mexico 's most internationally recognized movie stars, helps draw celebrities and other see-and-be-seen folks to La Bipo, his bar in the Coyoacán neighborhood. Designed as a cantina-style watering hole, La Bipo has a full cocktail bar and plenty of beer options. Decor is inspired by Mexican pop culture. As one example, the menu evokes lucha libre by appropriating the same kind of font used for posters promoting Mexican wrestling."

Barbacoa is a Sunday tradition in Mexico City, and you should head to La Bipolar if you choose to partake in this weekly ritual at least once in your life!
