Mexican cuisine varies greatly by region but we think some of the greats include Mole, Elotes (Mexican corn on the cob), Enchiladas, Tacos (our favourites include Al Pastor and Chipotle Chicken Soft Taco Wraps), breakfast dishes such as Chilaquiles and Huevos Rancheros, and no list would be complete without Guacamole!
Lunch is the main meal of the day in Mexico and is often 2 courses. You start with either a soup or salad and then the main is a meat, pork, chicken or seafood dish served with rice, beans, tortillas and salsas.
