The heat hits you first, but then you notice the incredible Chinese-Mexican fusion food everywhere, a legacy of the city's immigrant past. I lost count of how many times I ordered camaron con arroz at little family-run fondas.

You can still get an incredible meal for less than $5 USD if you know where to look. The Chinese food here isn't just "good for Mexico"—it's some of the best I've had anywhere, with generations-old recipes tweaked with local chiles.
