Enrique Olvera's agave bar in the old Pujol room
Ticuchi is Enrique Olvera's agave bar in Polanco, opened with partner Gonzalo Gout and chef Luis Arellano in the Francisco Petrarca building that housed the original Pujol. The name comes from the Zapotec word for bat, a nod to the bats that pollinate agave, and the room follows the idea: dark, low ceilinged and cave-like, a deliberate contrast to the glass and marble of the surrounding streets.
The list is the reason most people come. Mezcal, tequila and other agave distillates, many of them small batch, are poured neat or built into cocktails by a bar team that treats provenance seriously. The food is not an afterthought. Arellano's kitchen sends out Mexican small plates designed to be shared across a long sitting, with masa, chiles and seasonal produce doing most of the work.
