Extravaganza is a café located in the heart of Texcoco, in the State of Mexico, which offers an extensive menu of coffees with exceptional quality, and they use various extraction methods, including Kalita. Using Coatepec beans, they achieve the most fragrant and desirable coffee. When you take the first sip, it envelops all your senses. As if that weren't enough, this café has managed to integrate the highest quality products available in Mexico. With extensive expertise in the field of both national and international coffees, they have not only embraced coffee but also cacao with their majestic drinks that, without intending to be pretentious, dazzle you and leave you speechless with every sip. My favorite is the fermented chocolate, but they also offer cold and semi-bitter chocolate. If you prefer drinks with a kick, Extravaganza also has a menu of coffee cocktails, the best of both worlds in one place. Try the Wild Red Tonic, a cold brew with a hint of Campari. You’ll want to order two! In this café, it will be impossible to resist trying the classic espresso coffee accompanied by a delicious chocolate croissant or croissant, though if you prefer, you can also enjoy a loaf made with sourdough or a cardamom concha. If you appreciate simplicity, you can ask for a loaf of sandwich bread to make the best sandwiches from the comfort of your home. During this season, this café offers “Xonotli,” an aromatic pan de muerto made with prolonged fermentation and blue dough, it will make you sigh at the first bite. Don’t miss trying the “Cacahoatl,” a cacao bread with piloncillo or if you prefer something more novel, the “Mulli” will fill all your senses with its almond flavor and a touch of hoja santa. Without a doubt, Extravaganza is a place you can visit with friends, your partner, and even family, especially on Sundays, as they offer breakfasts like the drowned torta de sopecitos or the typical drowned torta. This place is the best option to try new drinks.
