The Place: Que
Bo: The Rock Star of Mexican Chocolatiers
The Experience: Que Bo has
become almost iconic in recent times as a representative of all-Mexican
chocolate in a modern Mexican style. Any Mexico Food Guide on chocolatiers in
Mexico City needs to include Que Bo’s two locations, in Polanco and the Centro
Histórico respectively.
Que Bo’s star is Chef José Ramón Castillo whose concept is
straightforward, use as many Mexican chocolate ingredients as possible, revive
ancient Mexican chocolate traditions in the form of wonderful chocolate
beverages and in the end when flavoring chocolates push strong Mexican flavors
and ingredients.
The execution and presentation of the chocolates is anything but
straightforward and simple. Rather all of the chocolates are loaded with
detail, brilliant coloring and rich Mexican flavors that take time and effort
to plan and prepare.
If you want an all Mexican chocolate experience with a real
modern kick head to Que Bo to help foment memories of your romantic Saint
Valentine’s Day!

Specialties:
All of the chocolates with Mexican fruit flavors are wonderful as
is the tascalate drink, an indigenous beverage served mainly in the Southeast
of Mexico where cacao is produced, which is considered to be a natural
aphrodisiac.
Tips: If you are looking for
a more hipster vibe in a more lively part of town Gringo G recommends the
Centro location. If you are looking for a more spacious and laid back
experience Gringo G recommends the Polanco location.
