    Great video! My wife and I just returned from a 2-week working vacation in Oaxaca and I wish we had watched this beforehand. Still, we had a great time and yes, Casa Oaxaca is one of the best restaurants in the city, in addition to Hierba Dulce and Boulenc.

    As a fact, the "chocolate mayordomo" chocolate is very sweet, those who take it for the sweet hardly finish it, but even in some places, in the same center they can make your chocolate as you like and the ingredients you are looking for, if You want it with sugar, little sugar, without sugar, with cinnamon or without cinnamon, most of the chocolate that they sell en masse, has more sweetness, because of the production but when you buy it for yourself, it contains what you want.

    Hi guys, I thought Tourist to Local would mean eating where locals would eat but on seeing the prices you show they seem a lot more like high end touristy prices. It’s been the same in most of your other videos too. Are you promoting for the owners? which is fine as long as you make that clear. Just thought you’d not be showcasing high end spots but places in neighbourhoods where locals live. Steve

    • @TouristtoLocal
      @TouristtoLocal  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Hi Steve! Thank you for your feedback and sharing your perspective on our channel, Tourist to Local. We appreciate your thoughts and would like to clarify our approach.
      In our videos, we strive to strike a balance between showcasing both popular tourist spots and local establishments. Our intention is to provide viewers with a well-rounded experience of a destination, including a variety of dining options. While we do feature some higher-end establishments, it is not because we are promoting them for the owners. In fact, the owners have no knowledge of our channel.
      The inclusion of different price ranges is deliberate, as we cater to two distinct markets. We have viewers from abroad who are interested in discovering local and budget-friendly places. At the same time, we have viewers from the local market who are on vacation and seek extraordinary dining experiences, which may include higher-end establishments. We believe that showcasing a range of options allows us to cater to different preferences and interests.
      While some of the restaurants in our videos may be more high-end, it's important to note that we believe the quality of the food and the overall experience justify the prices. We aim to highlight places that offer remarkable culinary experiences, sometimes that's in a market or on the side of the street like we showed while eating tlayudas and memelas, and other times that's in a high-end sit down restaurant.
      We value your feedback and will keep it in mind as we continue to create content. Our goal is to provide a diverse and engaging experience for our viewers, showcasing both popular attractions and hidden gems. Thank you for watching and supporting Tourist to Local.

    I had intentions of going to Oaxaca but too many tourists there now, and also the crime rate has greatly increased outside the centro zone, unfortunately. But, there and Chiapas is basically one of the poorest areas in Mexico, so you can expect crime to go up.
