Ticuchi

Ticuchi is one of the most dramatically lit bars in Mexico City, but not in the it’s-actually-pitch-black-in-here speakeasy kind of way. Instead of tiny votives, the primary light source is a huge skylight that shines down on a bunch of potted plants. They have some excellent artisanal mezcals on the drink menu, but our favorite cocktail is actually the tequila-based Silver Rush with fermented honey, lemon, and bee pollen. Chefs prepare a mostly vegetarian, corn-focused food menu in an open kitchen you can see from the street.
