Mi Casa Restaurant Menu Sample
At
Mi Casa Restaurant in Cabo San
Lucas, Los Cabos, México we prepare all parts of our
menu from scratch every day. Mexican
salsas, especially, have to be
freshly made for them to really
burst with flavors.
When we use achiote, a unique
Mexican chile paste, we marinade the
fish, or chicken a day before
cooking it which ensures that the
flavor is "married "to the product
and not only pasted on.
All our tortillas are made from
scratch every night right in the
patio in our tortilla station.
Served piping hot to your table.
There is just no substitute for a
fresh hot tortilla. 95% of the
restaurants buy commercial grade
tortillas and reheat tem for their
customers.
.
The same
is true today for the mole sauces: I
don't know of any other restaurant
in Cabo that makes the famous Mole
Poblano sauce from scratch which
takes about 8 hours to do and
requires a lot of skills. It is
easier to buy a commercial
concentrate in paste form and reheat
it with chicken broth. The
difference, of course, is like night
and day.
At Mi Casa there are no short-cuts
of any kind when it comes to
cooking. Thanks to you, we are the
most popular restaurant in Cabo with
an incredible following of repeat
customers that allows us to sell
almost everything we prep that day.
Our products are the freshest in
Cabo San Lucas, guaranteed.
Mi Casa's menu is the creation of
one of the better chefs in all of
Mexico, Keisha Valdes de Richter..
Her concept is to create a huge
window into the incredibly versatile
traditional cuisine of Mexico by
focusing on recipes that incorporate
these unique ingredients or unique
combinations that make them a
culinary stand-out.
The menu , in essence, is culinary
journey through Mexico. Keisha's
staff of 15 cooks are working hard
to make sure that the spirit of her
menu is properly represented every
day.
Mi Casa continues to strives for
improvements in all areas, such that
you, our dear customer, always will
want to come back. We hope to see
you soon for a culinary trip through
Mexico's regional cuisine. Notes:
feel free to e-mail your
reservations or suggestions to us.
We welcome your feedback. Check our
promotions. During the summer months
we usually run interesting
promotions that save you money.
