5 restaurants to welcome the New Year

• Galanga Thai House

Anyone who has known Galanga Thai House will know that this restaurant of chef Somsri Raksamran takes Thai gastronomy to the next level, in a warm and sophisticated atmosphere that always lends itself well to special occasions. This year, Galanga invites diners to celebrate the New Year with a dinner whose special menu will showcase the best of the local cuisine with dishes, many of which come directly from Thailand's most deeply rooted traditions. The date will be on the 31st at 8:00 p.m., and the menu will cost $2800, or $4000 with wine pairing.

Mentor

One of the most exciting openings celebrated by the St Regis Hotel this year was Mentor, an authentic Greek food restaurant whose décor will take you on a journey to the shores of the Mediterranean without having to take out your passport. To celebrate and thank 2023 and welcome 2024 with enthusiasm, Mentor will offer a New Year's Eve dinner in the purest Greek style, boasting the most festive traditions of Greece - expect to shout Opa! all night long to the rhythm of the music and the dishes crashing to the floor -, signature mixology and two special menus - one normal ($3400) and one vegetarian ($2750) - to accompany this moment with the most typical flavors of Greek cuisine.

Cantina Monte Rey

Another place that opened in Roma this year and has already become an unmissable hot spot for party and northern food lovers is Cantina Monte Rey. To celebrate the end of the year, one of the liveliest plans will undoubtedly be the New Year's Eve dinner at this place because, in addition to a four-course menu with vegetarian options, the ticket (which will cost $1900) will include a Burlesque-style show by Delirio Tropical -which will pay tribute to the cabaret show of the Mexican vedettes of the 70s- and an open bar.

Ling Ling

Throughout the year, this restaurant on the 56th floor of the Ritz Carlton hotel in Chapultepec has been a hot spot both for its spectacular views -literally, you don't have them anywhere else- and for its gastronomic proposal, which takes the izakaya concept to the next level. If you want to spend a New Year's Eve like no other, this is the place. The cost of the ticket varies depending on the location of the table you choose (ranging from $4500 to $5500), but all include a five-course dinner, a glass of champagne, service, and a fireworks show to welcome 2024 in style.

Zócalo Balcony

When it comes to views, Balcón del Zócalo is another of the best spots in the city, which also accompanies the most beautiful panoramic views of the Metropolitan Cathedral and the National Palace with a menu of signature Mexican cuisine by chef Pepe Salinas that is definitely among the best dining experiences in the CDMX. To bid farewell to 2023, this place will adopt a Moulin Rouge theme that will combine glamour, circus aesthetics, and a touch of burlesque to experience a magical night. The dinner will consist of a tasting menu -which will include vegetarian alternatives and a children's menu- that showcases the best of contemporary Mexican cuisine accompanied by its respective pairing.
