Raquel Del Castillo

Food Writer in Mexico City
About Raquel

Right now Raquel Del Castillo is the editor-in-chief of Menú (the food issue) at El Universal newspaper and writer at 7 Caníbales. She has been a food journalist since 2000, writing for publications such as Forbes online, Munchies (Vice Mexico), chilango.com, and the national newspaper Milenio. She studied culinary arts and Communication at university. Now she mixes this knowledge of cooking and writing in her everyday work. She loves teaching recipes and leading tours to the local markets of Mexico City. She thinks that the best way to know the flavors of Mexico is to walk through these public places and go to the restaurants to see how chefs prepare the ingredients for the numerous traditional Mexican recipes, some of them published in her three recipe books.
