Campeche’s cuisine is a blend of Mayan and Spanish influences, giving it a unique local flavor. In the city you can try such delicious dishes as chile X’catic stuffed with shark, panuchos, coconut shrimp, chaya tamales and tamales with ground beef, pork and chicken in annatto sauce. You can also indulge in pibipollo tamales (a combination of pork and chicken), the famous pan de cazon (tortillas stuffed or layered with shark, beans and salsa), the exquisite shrimp dishes, pompano in escabeche sauce, and countless other exotic dishes prepared with armadillo, caiman and venison. To wash it down, order a refreshing drink of fruit water prepared with tamarind, soursop, mango, plum or pitaya. Another option for a cold beverage is agua de horchata (sweetened rice water). For desert, you can order the regional pan dulce (sweet bread)..
