Costco in Mexico is essentially the "high end" supplier. Portions are a little smaller than the US for foods, because of the demographic they are targeting. Polanco is the "ritzy and upscale" but not super-wealthy district of Mexico City. Pretty much everything is centered around that mall.. it was normal for the upper/middle class from all over the region to drive into that specific small area for shopping. I think our commute was over an hour one way and we went there several times the week I was there.
