| In Oaxaca Mexico food is not taken lightly, traditional recipes, many of which predate the arrival of the Spanish, are passed from generation to generation. Oaxaca is known as “the land of seven moles” (pronounced mow- lay) is a thick rich sauce found in Oaxacan cuisine. Oaxaca is famous for its cheese, spicy sausages, tamales wrapped in banana leaves, and exotic dishes such as fried grasshoppers and armadillo. A must on any visitor's list of things to do in Oaxaca is a visit to the zócalo, or Town Square. The zócalo is the heart of Oaxaca and the city's undisputed social center. Most visitors to Oaxaca find themselves constantly returning to the zócalo. The open-air cafes that line two sides of the zócalo are the perfect place to get food, drinks, or just plain people watch.
