EATING LIKE A REAL MEXICAN – IT ALL STARTS WITH A TORTILLA

WITHOUT TORTILLA, THERE IS NO TACO!

Mexicans really don’t mess with tortillas. This is the first thing that you are put in the hand as soon as you have your first teeth and there is no Mexican who has never held one in his hand!

Some claim that tortilla is in Mexico what the baguette is in France but it is wrong! It’s so much more than that… For a Mexican, everything you eat ends up in a tortilla. Consumed at any time and presented in an infinity of recipes, it is a pillar of Mexican cuisine and especially a marvel of creation!

Just garnish a tortilla and it becomes THE TACO, the most emblematic dish of Mexico and the most ingenious way to eat! With one hand, it is a unique gastronomic experience where the tortilla is your bread, fork, spoon and also your plate!

« CON COPIAS POR FAVOR ! » EN FRANCAIS, « AVEC DES TORTILLAS EN EXTRA S’IL VOUS PLAIT ! »

With one hand, it is a unique gastronomic experience where the tortilla is your bread, fork, spoon and also your plate! In Mexico, it’s common to order extra tortillas with your tacos for several good reasons :

• Because you’re an expert! You know that the sauce, the juice of the meat and its vegetables may break your cake. But you, with your double tortilla, have already planned to enjoy your taco safely.
• Because your taquero (the cook) has a generous hand… You know that one small gesture of your wrist is enough for the meat in your taco to fall directly into the other tortilla… And neither seen nor known, you end up with two tacos instead of one!
• Because you are not here to laugh and in these cases, two pancakes are better than one to calm your appetite as an ogre!

Now you know Gringo that to pass for a local you will only have to order your tacos con copia! (with a little nod to the server)
