Let's give it a try

Now this is awful wow people actually pay to eat this wow

Hey guys, I am Luisito and this video

that you are watching is actually my first video in English So I hope you guys like it.

I hope you guys enjoy it because today is going to be a special

This video might make you feel like you wanna eat the whole world

Because, that's right my fellas, as you read in the title down below

Today we're going to try some Mexican street food

We are currently in Mexico City where we have a huge variety of street food

You can find many, many different kinds of tacos

You can find soups that are only sold in the streets

You can find carts filled with fruit, candies I mean, it's Mexico City, we have it all

You name it and I'll give it to you.

It's right here on the street.

So come with me guys through this tour of Mexican street food.

I know that I'll have a blast.

I hope you guys do as well.

Vamos a darle.

Okay, so of course we're going to start eating some tacos.

You guys, if you're not from Mexico, of course you have heard of tacos.

But I'm pretty sure that you have eaten the wrong kinds of tacos.

Let me tell you, in Mexico in general, Mexico City to be more specific, we have dozens, maybe hundreds, different types of tacos.

We're going to start with these ones that are called Placero Tacos.

Mmm, it smells amazing.

You know you're eating in a good place when they serve you the taco with two tortillas.

This right here, this is the tortilla, the tortilla, as you may pronounce it in English.

It's too heavy, you know, this is heavy, this is elephant heavy.

You need two tortillas to support it.

Or you can just divide it in two and make two tacos out of one.

I mean, we're saving the big bucks, guys.

This taco costs 17 pesos.

That's less than a dollar.

And look at all the meat that they put in it.

Quite impressive.

And not only that, you can put as many of these things as you like.

I'm gonna put some rice on top of it.

I'm gonna put some chicharron in it as well.

And I'm gonna put some hot sauce on top of it.

I'm gonna go just with a little bit.

Because guys, this might be very spicy.

I might have some diarrhea tomorrow, you guys.

So let's just keep it on the low.

Okay, so this is my placero taco.

It's like if an angel came down from the sky and gave me a little kiss on the cheek.

And I'm like, oh, thank you, angel.

I give him a big hug, you know.

This is what a placero taco feels like.

And it's less than $1.

You eat two of these and you're pretty much full.

When you come to Mexico City, don't doubt it.

Try the placero tacos.

Delightful.

If you guys are not Mexican and are thinking about trying some street food, let me give you some advice.

Try not to put many raw vegetables in your tats.

Because they are raw.

I mean, they are not cooked.

Therefore, they could have some bacteria.

But I mean, I as a Mexican, I can deal with them.

I have been eating them my whole life.

But when foreign people tend to come and eat the raw vegetables, the water from the tap, they tend to get really, really sick.

So, don't risk yourself, guys.

If you are eating some street food, eat only things that are deep fried or really well cooked.

Wow, I'm excited.

We have found something really special.

This is not common to find.

I mean, I was impressed.

I was like, wow.

Let me explain to you guys what we are about to eat these right here are charales

they are really tiny fish fish of salty water really really

small basically what they do they just deep fry them

and then they just roll them over in powdered chili

and then you just eat the whole thing i mean with the skeleton with the ice with everything

that you can imagine then we have chapulines chapulines are the grasshopper these are actually pretty common in mexico city

but not as common as one would think what they do is

that they take the grasshoppers they just put them on a frying pan

then they put some spice on top of them

and you eat them the whole thing these are really really good

and i see

that they also sell dried garlic with salt i mean

you just eat the garlic like this you have stinky bread for the rest of the day

and you smell like garlic it's not the nicest thing

but of course we have to try the nice man right

here the owner of this whole thing is letting me do my own mix they give you a little bag and you

You just put whatever you want in it.

You can put peanuts, you can put the fish, you can put some Cheetos, some dry meat.

And if you want, on top of it, you can put some gummy worm.

I don't know why anyone would do that, but I mean it's Mexico City.

Anything can happen so i'm gonna put just a few charales then i am seeing right here

that they have takis as well takis is a pretty popular type of chip i'm gonna put just one garlic

because i really don't like it i'm gonna put a bunch of chapulines

because oof i love them i'll have just one little piece of dry meat

and just for the love i'm going to put some gummy worms on top of it oh check it out you

This is my lunch box right here.

I bring this to school and I'm the most popular kid.

And this, your bag of lunch, doesn't stay like this.

What you do is that you take a piece of lime and boom, you just squeeze it inside.

Then you take some Valentina sauce.

This is hot sauce.

Not really hot.

100

I mean, if you're Mexican, it's not really spicy.

101

You put some hot sauce in there.

102

And then once you have the whole thing there, you just check it out.

103

You have to pay attention with this, you guys.

104

You just make a little twist and then shake it.

105

Shake what mama gave you.

106

You shake it like this.

107

This might seem strange, you guys.

108

This is a strange movement for my hand.

109

But I mean, you have to really shake it.

110

We are ready.

111

Yes.

112

Okay, so let's give it a try.

113

I'm going to start with my least favorite.

114

That is the garlic.

115

I don't know why would anybody eat garlic like this.

116

Let's give it a try.

117

now this is awful wow people actually pay to eat

118

this wow okay we're gonna have one charal now these are pretty good this is a small fish

119

yes a thousand times yes then we're going to have some chapulines okay

120

this is what a chapulin looks like check this out a grasshopper

121

I love them I'm gonna have a tacky for you guys

122

Not spicy at all

123

And last but not least

124

The cherry on top of the cake I'm gonna have the gummy worm

125

Just the perfect amount of sweetness

126

That my mouth needed right now

127

Warning with this you guys

128

Your hands end up being all red I mean it looks like you just helped a pig give birth

129

You know Come on little piggy

130

Let's take all the pigs out of you.

131

Boom, boom.

132

Your hands are all bloody

133

It's either that or you had a delicious bag of Mexican lunch

134

Oh, next up, I'm excited about this one.

135

I really don't like eating it

136

But every time I show this to a foreign person, they're quite impressed

137

So this is an exciting one.

138

We're about to eat some caldo de gallina

139

That is hen soup.

140

You know hen, the mother of the chicken I don't know if I'm pronouncing it correctly

141

So what they do is that they put the soup in a big bowl

142

This is a really big bowl

143

They can put some rice in it as well

144

And then you ask for your favorite part of the chicken

145

You can ask for a drumstick

146

You can ask for some chicken breast

147

You can even ask for a chicken foot

148

I don't know how to call it A patita de pollo I'm not the biggest fan of patitas de pollo

149

But of course we're going to try it

150

All for the video, all for the vlog

151

Un caldo de gallina con patas, por favor Here it is,

152

my gallina caldo my caldo de galina it smells really good let me tell you i can see

153

that they put some white rice in it and also of course some chicken feet oh look at this wow delightful

154

all sweet chicken okay let's start with the soup

155

quite good

156

but i'm not impressed also i have to mention this this is probably the best choice of street food

157

if you are trying to eat healthy have some nutritious food some tacos might not be the best choice

158

but some grasshoppers

159

and some chicken soup is definitely the right choice okay now let's go with the chicken feet the patita de pollo

160

oh no no no this is not good

161

It's not that bad.

162

I'm sorry.

163

I overreacted.

164

I exaggerated.

165

I used to know an old person that his whole life he ate some chicken feet.

166

So as you can see, you need your teeth for it, right?

167

You need to kind of chew on it.

168

So he got so old that he didn't have teeth anymore.

169

So what he did, he was so addicted to the chicken feet that with his nails,

170

he would just chun chun chun scratch on them and eat them like that.

171

If eating your chicken feet with your nails is not real love, I'm sorry, but I don't know what love is.

172

Okay, this was the chicken soup, the caldo de gallina, the hand soup.

173

Quite good, quite healthy.

174

And to end this video, to wrap it up with style, of course we need something sweet.

175

Something sweet to finish with this adventure.

176

We have tried many things.

177

Different flavors are mixed in my mouth right now

178

and i need something sweet something delicious to rinse it all off

179

so we found this nice lady her name is porfiria

180

and she sells merengues on the street maybe

181

you have heard of merengues maybe you haven't

182

it's also a type of dance merengue merengon my favorite one

183

is the gaznate gaznate is the merengue wrapped up in flour dried flour

184

and merengue is basically egg white mixed with pulque

185

that i don't know

186

i'm not even gonna try to describe what pulque is a lot of sugar

187

they mix it all together then it dries up and boom you have your delicious merengue.

188

They also put some color in it, that's why it's pink.

189

In other words, it's amazing, it's delicious, it's the perfect sweet taste after a big meal.

190

Each one of these is 20 pesos.

191

That is pretty much a dollar.

192

Maybe a little bit more than a dollar.

193

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
