NUMU Boutique Hotel

NUMU Boutique Hotel is one of the newest hotels in the historic center. It comfortably combines a modern luxury aesthetic with traditional crafts and cultural experiences.

For Dia de Los Muertos, executive chef Omar Tovar will collaborate with Consuelito, an Otomí woman from the nearby town of Comonfort, which is known for the traditional craft of volcanic stone molcajetes (Mexican mortar and pestles). Together, they will showcase a ceremonial tortilla, made using a family seal passed down through generations. Consuelito has entrusted Chef Omar with this ceremonial seal, allowing him to respectfully share this tradition in a special “seal delivery ceremony.”

Tovar has also prepared a special Dia de Muertos tasting menu, with dishes inspired by different regions of Mexico, to be served at NŌIA, the rooftop restaurant. A highlight is the “sea and clay” taco, made from fresh nixtamal tortillas topped with roasted nopales, wild mushrooms, and a Zarandeado (grilled) fish fillet paired with shrimp.

The menu also includes fried pumpkin flowers stuffed with Escamoles (the rare, expensive Ant Larvae known as Mexican caviar), a grilled octopus dish inspired by Hanal Pixán traditions, and a red Tetela oaxaqueña filled with short rib barbacoa served over yellow plum mole.

The experience concludes with a classic pan de muerto stuffed with Cajeta and paired with tumbagones and chocolate infused with tequila.
