San Ángel
Café Corazon , Frontera 4, just along from Plaza San
Jacinto. Small and friendly bar and venue noted for its advocacy of
trova music, predominantly with acoustic singer-songwriters
on Friday and Saturday nights. Free or with a very small cover.
Mexican contemporary music on Sat night.
La Camelia , Plaza San Jacinto. Rowdy early evening
boozing to recent US and Latin pop hits, either inside or out on
the street.
New Orleans , Revolución 1655 (tel 5550-1908). Excellent
jazz venue-cum-restaurant with very good food at moderate prices
and a classy Cuban house band. It is open from Tuesday to Saturday,
but weekends are much the liveliest unless there is some
international jazz act playing. Entry costs US$4 (US$5-6 on Fri
& Sat) plus there's a US$10 minimum consumption, but it is
worth it.
