Viva la Mexico!



TexMex cuisine is very trendy right now. The term is comprised of the names of the two regions together that have influenced this cuisine the most: the state of Texas in the USA and the northern part of Mexico. The cuisine combines Mexican with Southern cooking, Mexican inspiration with American/Texan interpretation. It is characterized mainly by hot spices, meat and beans, salsas and tortillas.

TexMex is an uncomplicated cuisine, in which – usually very spicy – dishes are prepared quickly using simple, hearty ingredients. These dishes are eaten often without tableware and are therefore best suited for casual occasions.
