They say food is one of the greatest pleasures in
life, and personally I couldn’t agree more, all my life I had a father who
loved food more than anything else, but not just any food, it had to be good
food, ingredients that would water your mouth and stay in your mind in the long
run, dishes that could represent an entire country and that would evoke
memories and places.
Well yesterday I didn’t just get to enjoy some really
good food, I also got to honor my father, a great Mexican man, with some
extremely well prepared Mexican plates.
RAÍZ (Av. de los Jinetes 102, Col. Las Arboledas, Atizapán de Zaragoza, Estado de México)
Raíz, is not just any regular Mexican restaurant, it
is an odyssey of flavors and culture.
Mexican food is known for its spices and the
combination of strong flavors like chili, cacao and more, well this restaurant
is not just a tribute to all this amazing flavors that have been passed through
history, intensifying our culture and traditions, most importantly, its a clash
between our history and our past, with that of a modern, new Mexico.
From the food to the place, you can feel at home, just
like eating at your grandma’s house savoring that safe and yummy mole, combined
with that extra touch of being in a lounge, in a cool and hip Mexico city.
A restaurant with contrasts, just like our Mexico is. A
restaurant with elegance and culture, supervised by a great chef, named Arturo
Férnandez, who I personally know and admire, a person that puts his whole self
in every bite and corner of Raiz.
If you want to enjoy a great taste of modern Mexico,
this is definitely the place.
Zipadedoodah hope you enjoy
it ;)
