INTRODUCING A TASTING MENU
We inspired our cooking in Middle Eastern People’s odyssey during the 20th and 21st Centuries. They brought the Yucatan the basis for the region’s many traditional dishes and greatly influenced Mexican Cuisine. Food is better when it is shared. We place our dishes at the center of the table so everyone can taste and enjoy them.
