Baleadas Kennedy
A long-running baleada shop that began as a street stall in the Kennedy neighborhood in 1993; popular locally for being cheap and authentic.
In November 1993, Marina Vásquez and her husband began selling baleadas from a street stall in the Kennedy neighborhood. It later grew into a proper restaurant with several branches in the city; this is the original shop at the second Kennedy entrance. A baleada is a flour tortilla folded around refried beans, cheese, and cream. You can order the basic version with just those three, or “con todo” with everything added. The shop also sells burritas, fried rolled tortillas, enchiladas, chilaquiles, and grilled meat. Beef soup is served on Thursdays and tripe soup on Sundays. It's busiest at breakfast, the setting is simple, and prices are very low. Located in the Kennedy area in the south of the city; a taxi is recommended.
