MEXICO CITY - With his pompadour and plastic-rimmed glasses, a waiter in a swank restaurant here easily passes for Kapamilya star Daniel Padilla, amusing Filipino tourists.

Omar says he regularly gets requests for pictures from Filipino guests at Azul Condesa, who can't help but notice his resemblance to Padilla.

Padilla most recently starred in "Can't help falling in love" with on-screen partner Kathryn Bernardo.

Azul Condesa is one of the more popular restaurants in Mexico's old quarter, where they serve traditional fare such as "mole," or chicken stewed in 100 ingredients, including roasted peppers and chocolate.

Omar recommends the "sopa de tortilla" or tortilla soup, served in a bowl shaped like Katrina, a skeleton dressed in a gown that reflects the importance of "Dia de los muertos" or Day of the Dead in Mexican culture.
