Tapas Mestizas
A dining concept that originated in Spain, tapas are small savory dishes and bite-sized snacks that are perfect for sharing, allowing you to linger at the table and dine on several different choices. Chef Mario Castro has built upon this pleasurable style of dining by crafting mouthwatering dishes that highlight the local flavors and ingredients of Mexico. Making reference to people whose heritage is a mix of Native American and Spanish blood, mestizo/a is a word that can also be used to characterize this distinctive pairing of Spanish and Mexican culinary influences.
