We will be having two dinners with a special menu on May 22 and May 29 featuring Mole Poblano! I have been craving some good mole, and finally decided to put it on the menu. You can read about this dish and its history at
http://www.mexonline.com/molepoblano.htm. Our friend at Gallerie Orange will be working hard to come up with some wine pairings for these dinners, which will also include a crema de hongos (a creamy soup with oyster mushrooms), ensalada de espinacas (spinach salad with warm homemade pork or tofu chorizo), strawberry lime granita, mole poblano with braised turkey shanks (or roasted mushrooms for vegetarians) served with Mexican style rice and homemade corn tortillas, and our favorite dessert of chile infused individual chocolate cakes.
As usual we will be getting started with cocktails and antojitos at 7:00, and seating is limited to 12 guests or less.
