The images of Mexico, lindo y querido, are so many that everyone has his or her own beliefs and personal maps about this ancient and big country. But “the map is not the territory,” observed Alfred Korzybski, to caution us that an abstraction drawn from our beliefs is not the thing itself. Through the pages of our second issue, Latin Lover has created a territory for various food & travel maps of Mexico.

We explore Mexico from the hidden treasures of Holbox Island to the Riviera Maya and Oaxaca, with a photo-stop in today’s Tenochtitlan and then back to New York, where chef Julian Medina introduces us to his favorite recipe, tacos de suadero, a knockout version of a Mexico City street-food classic.

We also bring you a portrait of the talented American-Dominican-Norwegian Hermanas Iglesias, a grandma’s delicious coconut risotto recipe, authentic Venezuelan arepas in Manhattan and more. While drawing your own maps, you can taste a Catalonian Priorat or surrender your soul to a Pierde Almas.

Buen viaje!
