The Oaxaca cheese lady in the Tianguis
Every Tuesday when we can, we visit the Tianguis, or open air market, held at the top of the hill above SMA. One of our favorites here is the best Oaxaca (pronounced Wa-haka) string cheese on the face of the Earth (well, with the possible exception of in Oaxaca). Although it can be obtained anywhere locally, the Tianguis cheese lady’s version, brought in giant balls crammed into spackle buckets and rewound into marketable portions in front of you, is the most buttery and freshest tasting we have ever found. You will recognize her by the line of waiting customers. Also, great chorizo and other goodies.
