Eating and drinking

For a relatively small city, Tlaxcala seems particularly well stocked with
restaurants
and
bars
, generally around the zA?calo and along JuA?rez. Some of the most inviting are those under the
portales
on the eastern and southern sides of the zA?calo, where you can sit outside and watch life go by: try
Los Portales
, Plaza de la ConstituciA?n 8 (tel 2/462-5419), with its broad range of antojitos, burgers, salads, pasta dishes and the delicious
sopa Tlaxcala
(US$3), made from black beans, tortilla chips, cheese, avocado and chicharron. The
Italian Coffee Company
, on the south side of the zA?calo, has the best coffee and a lively atmosphere; and you could also try
El Quinta Sol
, JuA?rez 12 (closed Sun), which serves vegetarian versions of standard Mexican dishes, along with a good range of interesting salads (US$3), sandwiches, burgers and hearty plates of fruit, yogurt and granola for breakfast.
The restaurants all serve alcohol, but for a more dedicated drinking experience, visit
El Callejon de Alcocer
, a dim
bar
at Av Guridi y Alcocer 50. Other useful information
