Wow, I was reading all the health benefits of Nixtamal, and it’s very impressive! Everything pictured here looks delicious. Can you describe each dish you had? I’m glad you had a wonderful day. Love the music, too!
The menu is now posted and if you roll over the photos there are captions. Just great food. They close at 7:00 pm, Mon-Wed, and were turning people away.
