Whats the mariachi park.... you can go at night and drink and have them play you songs.... anyone? I forgot.
Also, for night life Colnia Roma/Condesa. I don't know many museum stuff.

Go eat @ "La fonda Del Recuerdo" it's in Colonia "Anzures" (order the toritlla soup and the drink called "Torito" it's a coconut based cocktail)
Drink all night in the Plaza Garibaldi with the Mariachis in a tequila bar.
Make your way to Teotihuacan to see the Pyramids of the Sun and Moon
Go to Palacio Bellas Artes for insane works of Art.
For Museum go The Museum of Anthropology
For dance clubs go to Zona Rosa or Roma
Go to En La Merced if you are a perv who wants to hook up with trannies or underage prostitutes
For hot rich girls or "fresas" hang out at coffee shops in Polanco.
To die hang out in Tepito by yourself.
For really big market experience go to Hidalgo Market it's not far from the airport and one of the safest ones.
Don't be a jackass and wear jewelry out, also keep you wallet in your front pocket.
enjoy!

I got to admit, I wore jewlery and a D&G jacket and never felt threatened.... I don't think I look particularly scary, but I always go out in a group. DF now seems pretty safe to me compared to the other places I've been. Have fun, but don't be stupid; basic advice.
Although I'm not sure I'd recommend street food... or at least it didn't get along with me... but I think I also drank about 2 liters of ...whatever it was... that night, so puking could have been from multiple sources.
