Nomad Gastro Market is delighted to announce that from the 27th of July La Mexicana will be joining Holidayworld Maspalomas’ gastronomic market. Discover all the flavour and tradition of Mexico. La Mexicana, an outstanding restaurant from Vecindario, arrives in the south of Gran Canaria with its 100% original recipes. Here, you’ll be able to try Mexican food in a suggestive and accessible way for all types of customers.
Traditional Mexican cuisine, often confused with Tex-Mex (Mexican food influenced by Texas), is more than moles, sauces or tortillas. Mexico is much more than spicy food. The aim of La Mexicana is to transport you to this reality, and to introduce you to the flavours of the country’s extensive and delicious gastronomy. At La Mexicana, with the help of an agronomist, they have managed to harvest ingredients that are native only to Mexico and that make their dishes unique on the island. Some of these plantations provide them with green tomatillo, jalapeño chillies, habanero chillies, serrano chillies, poblano chillies and more and more foodstuffs. It’s a delight for the senses that you can’t miss in the south of Gran Canaria thanks to Nomad Gastro Market!
In order not to mix flavours, at La Mexicana they do not reuse oil, they do not use deep fryers. The trick is to bring out the flavour of each chilli, to know how to combine, to respect the flavours of each ingredient and to give it the touch that fills your senses. If something stands out in them, it is their overflowing originality. They like to give colour and freshness to the dishes, that’s why they are always looking to innovate with different details, they know that love comes through the eyes, so when you come to La Mexicana, you will get a whole set of details that will make your meal an unforgettable experience.
