When you're hungry at anytime (24 hours, 365 days a year) Au Pied de Cochon is available to serve you.

An upscale experience and truly a 5 star meal. My colleague and I were quickly seated and we began looking over the menu. We inquired about a wine list and a sommelier brought an iPad by with over 2200 wine varieties! We opted by the glass and they still offered over 200 vinos to choose from. My colleague chose a local red and I went with the Vino Blanco Gustave Lorentz Gewürztraminer Reserve, a delicious white.

As we looked over the menu, the waiter brought by a complimentary plate of Pâté and an assorted bread basket with butter.

My colleague ordered the Bavette skirt steak and I chose the 200 gram Filet Mignon accompanied with a bordelaise sauce, baked potato and bone marrow. The filet was very succulent and cooked medium to perfection.

We both agreed we didn't have room for dessert but the waiter still brought a complimentary plate of goodies along with the check.

A delicious French cuisine restaurant located inside the Presidente Intercontinental hotel in Mexico City.

I ate at Au Pied de Cochon on Christmas Eve morning with a group of 8. We were staying at the Intercontinental Presidente, and it's located on their main floor/lobby. The service, as well as the food was outstanding. They offer menus in English upon request. The waiter started us off by serving a wide variety of pastry on the table. My sister-in-law and I each ordered the French toast (pictured), which was outstanding. The portions were very large and neither of us could finish our meal. My husband ordered fruit along with eggs. I ended up snagging some of his fruit because it was so fresh - you could view the chefs cutting it up behind the tables. I'd certainly recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the area, especially if you're already staying in the hotel.

Beautiful, Pricey, Elegant! "The Pig's Foot" would be a competitive top-end restaurant in any city. Located in the hotel district of Polanco, this is a great stop after a concert at the Auditorio Nacional. The extensive wine collection makes the wine list is more like a wine book.

I've had the pleasure of coming to this fine restaurant several times, across two trips to CDMX.
The first time was last fall, whilst travelling to this great city with my partner at the time. The spur of the moment trip led us to this great restaurant, located in the first floor of Hotel Presidente Intercontinental. They are open 24 hours, which is great.
My first meal here was at 3AM, when we got in town and settled into our room. I ordered am omelet plate, which was exquisite. Later that day, I ordered a grilled salmon plate with brown rice. The wait time to get my food was reasonable, and the food was cooked the perfection. It was both tasty and healthy, which is a win in my book.
On my second trip to CDMX, I stayed in the same hotel, and received the same great service from this restaurant. I ordered the same omelet plate via room service, and the food did not disappoint. My friend ordered a beef bowl, which had juicy steak over a bed of rice and veggies. We shared a fruit plate, and had lemonade with club soda and cappuccinos to drink.
Overall, this restaurant is amazing. Whether you chose to dine in their finely decorated restaurant, or order through room service, Au Pied de Cochon does not disappoint.
