One constant at all the ferias is food. One is drawn in and tempted by too many sights and smells. The Feria del Carrizo had wonderful temptations every which way one turned. I guess this might be categorized as "street food,' but really it is just folks setting up and selling freshly prepared food. So many taste treats! Everything from tlayudas, barbacoa, oaxacan style higaditos, tamales, tacos, memelitas, on and on. There was both chivo and borrego barbacoa (goat and lamb) and lots of vendors, who were all doing great business. I grabbed a nice lamb taco.
I would have loved to have tried more. I am always tempted by those deep fried things bubbling away in oil.
I know, I know, but everything in moderation... Actually, the taco came after these molotes, which are little empanadas filled with potatoes and chorizo.
Wow, they were so good, I wish I had some right now. A good reason to go back next Sunday.
