Synopsis:

Inspired by the best restaurants, fondas, loncherias, and taco stands in Mexico City and adapted for the home cook, Made in Mexico is a delicious blend of classic regional and contemporary Mexican cuisine from celebrated chef Danny Mena s hometown. Made in Mexico mixes recipes inspired by Mexico City street food, local eateries, and multi-starred restaurants, combining regional traditions and global trends. In more than one hundred dishes for breakfast, antojitos or snacks, salads and ceviches, main dishes, and desserts, as well as staples such as salsa roja and tortillas, chef Danny Mena shows American home cooks the depth and diversity of true Mexican cooking in the capital city, with explanations for proper technique and suggestions for ingredient variations. Transportive photography from the streets, squares, markets, fondas, and restaurants of Mexico City complements beautifully plated dishes and an alfresco backyard dinner. Each recipe is inspired by a different Mexico City restaurant, giving the book a second life as a delicious image-filled guide to one of the word s hottest culinary destinations. Fascinating sidebars illuminate aspects of Mexican food culture and feature notable locations.

About the Author: Acclaimed by Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, the Los Angeles Times, and The New York Times, Mexico City-born Danny Mena began at New York landmarks Blue Hill and The Modern before opening Hecho en Dumbo in 2010. For six years, Hecho en Dumbo refined rustic Mexican comfort food and contemporary Mexico City cuisine from its location on the Bowery until late 2016; a new restaurant concept will open in the same location in 2019. In 2017, Mena launched La Loncheria with new partners in Brooklyn s Bushwick neighborhood, and has partnered in a mezcal distillery, Mezcales de Leyenda. He lives in New York City with his wife, kids, and dog. This is his first book.
