Culinary Tour of Mexican Food Kicks Off Friday July 2nd!
Posted on Tue, Jun 29, 2010
Starting on Friday July 2nd, 2010, Guadalajara Grill will embark on a Culinary Tour of Mexico!
From the very beginning of our restaurant, we have taken inspiration from Guadalajara, in the State of Jalisco. Everything, from our menu to the decorations of our restaurant itself, is inspired by our roots in Guadalajara. Our commitment to this inspiration has shown through in our blend of traditional and innovative dishes, surrounded by fresh tortillas, tableside salsa, live mariachi music, and wonderful friendly staff dressed in traditional Mexican attire.
But Mexico is a large country, and it possesses one of the richest culinary traditions in the world. Extending from the Pacific Coast, to the Gulf of Mexico, from Northern deserts, and ranches to the highlands and fields of Central Mexico, all the way to the mountains and rainforest, the natural and cultural diversity of Mexico has resulted in a diverse mosaic of cuisines that few places in the world can rival.
We want to pay homage to that rich tradition, and take you along for the ride. Every month, starting on July 2nd 2010, our Tucson restaurant will feature a different state or region of Mexico, and bring you samples of some of the tastiest local dishes that originate there. Chef Edgar Gomez will put his special touches on some of the classic dishes from each place. Some dishes will be Mexican food favorites, and others will be fantastic dishes that you may never have tried. And that's the point. We want to share our love of Mexico and her culinary traditions with you!!
Chef Edgar will also be sharing his delicious recipes with you every month! and you can find them on the "Culinary Tour" web page on this site, starting with Puebla. Here in our blog, we will also write about the culture, history, traditions, clothes, music and even current events of each area we are focusing on.
If you have been to Mexico, you know that each trip and each new destination offers a world of new surprises and experiences. We would love to hear about your favorite times, favorite destinations and favorite meals in Mexico. Share your comments here, or on our Facebook page. And let us know what you think by leaving us reviews on your favorite restaurant review site.
