Sushi Shalalá - Mexico City - TravBuddy

Tamaulipas south of Michoacán is crowded with plenty of places to eat, drink and be merry. Sushi Shalalá is by no means an extraordinary sushi place, but it's good. Quite good, for Mexico City. (In fact, I'll go ahead and say that this place is more satisfying than any of the Japanese restaurants on Paseo Reforma near the Japanese embassy; tastier than the Sushi Kaiten and Sushi Itto chains; and less obnoxious than the Japanese restaurants I've tried in Polanco.) The menu is pretty enormous, and I can only attest personally to a small portion of it, but everything I've had has been fantastic for inexpensive-to-moderatly-priced sushi. The service is less than stellar, but what makes this place stand out in my estimation is their Paquete Vegetariano. Four small but delicious courses for around 100 pesos. As with all sushi in Mexico City, watch out for extraneous cream cheese. (?)
