We did not have reservation and were seated in the salon, for just 10-15 minutes. While seated we were offered a glass of cold water with lemon and rosemary.
To start, our waiter brought us a basket of bread and 4 kinds of tostadas to...munch with green salsa, red salsa, and a sinful coconut butter. Everything was extremely tasty!
We had 2 Cocktails: Sanson and Coctel Danzantes. Both cocktails were beautifully executed, fragrant, and fresh.
Then 2 Main courses: Ancho chili stuffed with huitlacoche, tamala pumpkin puree, goat cheese, and baby veggies; Pork ribs, candied in oaxacan spirits sauce (salsa borracha) with plantain and native apple puree. The salsa borracha was a reduction of beer, mezcal, and pulque. The taste was layered and fragrant.
We ended with only 1 Dessert (because the portions were big for us): Goat cheese flan with lavender, which was refreshing and complex with different layers, textures, and tastes.
Our total (2 cocktails, 2 main courses, 1 dessert, and tip) came up to almost US$ 65. Expensive for Oaxaca, but it was totally worth it.
Our server Antonio spoke perfect English, but was very patient when we wanted to practice Spanish.More
