I'm went to Oaxaca in July 2011 courtesy of the NEH to study the arrival of the Spanish from the indigenous point-of-view. I'm now plotting to return and continue researching GM corn and colonial architecture in 2013.

Damn good coffee
Reading: Oaxaca Journal by Oliver Sacks
Oaxaca al Gusto by Diana Kennedy
My friends know I'm extremely picky about coffee, so much so that I have mine shipped up from New Orleans every three months. But I loved the coffee we had in Oaxaca. One of my favorite places was La Antigua on the Reforma. We went in the evenings to play chess while drinking coffee and eating chocolate cake with chili sauce.
The Oaxaca Wiki has other suggestions of where to get a great cup of coffee or chocolate oaxaqueno, and I'm planning to hit them all, and more, this summer!
