WHAT TO EAT IN MOTUL
One of the must-do activities during your visit is to try the exquisite and famous huevos motuleños. The history of this dish dates back to 1921 when the governor of Yucatán, Felipe Carrillo Puerto, visited his hometown along with various notable personalities from Mexico such as the writer José Vasconcelos, the muralist Diego Rivera, the poet Carlos Pellicer, and the official Jaime Torres Bodet, among others. The chef accompanying them, knowing the governor's tastes, integrated all his favorite ingredients into a single dish.
Other typical dishes include: mondongo, tacos, salbutes, chaya water, and nata and bola cheese bread.
If you really want to discover the local flavors, you can have breakfast at the 20 de Noviembre Market.
