Traditional findings from Sonora, Mexico.

These are some of the best memories from Sonora.

Sonora is a big producer of beef in Mexico and tacos made out of this meat are delicious. You have to order “Tacos de Asada” if you want to get the good stuff. In this specific place where my friend Lizbeth took us in Hermosillo (capital of Sonora) they had a “Salsa bar” where you could condiment your tacos in any way you like, you could add from any type of salsa to cucumbers or pico de gallo.
I am not a lover of beef but these tacos were AWESOME!!!
Prices range from $11-$20 pesos depending on the establishment, a little bit expensive in comparison to the South of Mexico but 1-2 tacos will be enough.


“Coyotas” are a type of traditional cookies in Sonora; they are made out of flour, vegetable oil, sugar and “piloncillo” (by-product of the sugar cane process). They are not the healthiest but sure they are sweet and enjoyable with a cup of coffee at any time of the day. Price: $5-$10 pesos/each.


Hot-dogs, yes… In Hermosillo we found excellent hot-dogs, not only they have a “Salsa bar” too but you do not pay until you finish and you can wonder around the park without being asked for immediate payment!!! Brian and I had one hot-dog for the two of us because they are huge (two wieners), for only $28 pesos…
