- [Voiceover] Playa Del Carmen has

its fair share of tourist traps

and cheesy chain restaurants,

but there's side of this town

that has some really good local food

and I'm gonna find out tonight

on a Mexican food crawl.

So our guide Ivan is from this area

so he knows everybody,

he knows everything,

and I know he's taking us to the good spots here.

- He knows what he's talking about.

(laughs)

Mexican street tacos are probably the best thing

in the entire country.

You can get them all over the place

and really, there's a lot of flavor in these bad boys.

Mmmm.

- [Woman] The tacos were delicious.

I like them.

It's perfect for me.

- Every time you sit down at a table in Mexico,

you get a plate of different salsas

and they usually go from hot,

hotter, and hottest.

That is a huge tamale.

I've never seen a tamale that big.

- Every place where we go,

the taste is very Mexican.

It's so good.

- Here, we have grasshopper tacos.

- As if the tacos with the grasshoppers weren't enough,

this is escamole, which is giant ant eggs.

So legend has it that this is an aphrodisiac.

I'll take two spoonfuls.

Watch out, ladies.

We've eaten a lot of tacos,

a lot of street food,

a little bit of ice cream.

Now it's time to end the night at Tequila Town,

where, yes, you guessed it right,

we're gonna drink some tequila.

- We got a tequila blanco.

(speaking Spanish)

- So that is it, my friends.

That was an amazing food tour.

We got to try all sorts of tacos

and street food

and sweets.

Thank you so much, Ivan.

Adios!
