Thank You New York Times

Emily DeNitto of the New York Times wrote a very nice review on us this weekend you can read it here if you haven’t already. I have had experience in another restaurant with a Times review, it’s extremely intense and lots of fun. The good news for us is that we have lots of practice with high volume and we did know that the review was coming out. What you don’t know of course is what the review is going to say and what dishes are going to be featured. People come in with the paper and point, “I want that”. It’s really cute. I want to thank Ms. DeNitto for her nice words and that she gets what we are doing. It’s always been a challenge for us to stand firm for what we believe in as far as the Mexican food we are preparing here and now we have some great acknowledgment in a very important publication for all the world to see. Or at least all the world that gets the Westchester section of the Times which is good enough for us at the moment. Couple with the nice writeup by Julia Sexton in Westchester magazine about our masa, we really have people spreading the word for us. After all is said and done, the most important thing for us is the work which is made all the more rewarding by the fact that people are appreciating what we are doing. Creating everything fresh, from scratch, with ancient traditions guiding us has always been a pleasure and non-negotiable. When you have the New York Times writing that what you are doing is worthy, it’s a great rush. The food we create for the most part is humble, very honest and delicious. Hope to see you soon.
