Frequently Asked Questions
What are the top 10 Mexican dishes?
Ah, narrowing it down to just ten is tough! But generally, you’ll find tacos, enchiladas, tamales, guacamole, chiles rellenos, pozole, mole poblano, quesadillas, carnitas, and elote consistently topping “best of” lists. Of course, personal preference always wins!
What is the #1 order to never make at a Mexican restaurant according to chefs?
While it depends on the restaurant, some chefs advise against ordering dishes with complex sauces like mole on a busy night. These sauces require time and attention, and quality might suffer when the kitchen is slammed. Always a good idea to ask your server about what’s tasting especially great that day, too.
What is the Mexican restaurant in Breaking Bad?
That would be Los Pollos Hermanos! Though it looks like a restaurant, it’s primarily a front for Gus Fring’s drug operation. It’s not really a Mexican restaurant, but it’s a fun and iconic part of the show.
What is birria in Mexican food?
Birria is a flavorful Mexican stew, traditionally made with goat meat, but sometimes beef or lamb. It’s slow-cooked in a rich broth with chilies and spices until the meat is incredibly tender. Birria is often served with tortillas, onions, cilantro, and lime, perfect for dipping the meat in the flavorful broth. Some places even make quesabirria, which is birria stuffed into a cheesy quesadilla with a side of dipping broth!
