TRANSCRIPT

Adelita & Basilo have 15 children, they love them all but their favourites are the twins Chico & Demitrio.

Adelita is a wonderful wife & also an excellent cook, her husband Basilo is an artisan who loves & is devoted to his wife.

In their small hacienda there is no television, nor radio. They rely on their 15 children for news, local gossip & the running of errands.

Adelita is the most wonderful cook & here at La Hacienda we have created dishes straight from Adelita's recipe book.

The decor was created to pay homage to their small hacienda back in Santiago Papasquiaro in the Mexican province of Durango.

We hope that you will enjoy some of Adelita's favourite dishes or "El Alimento del Amor" as Adelita & Basilo called her recipes, well after having 15 children the food certainly seemed to work.

Although we cannot guarantee that you will have 15 children,

we can guarantee that every dish is created with passion, the freshest ingredients and will be just as delicious as Adelita cooks her food

back in Santiago Papasquiaro.

So please, we invite you to "Disfruta la Comida" or "Buen Provecho" as Adelita will be saying to Chico, Dimitrio and their 13 brothers & sisters when they sit down for dinner.

For many people, merely the mention of Tequila conjures up memories of bad tasting liquor, downed in one with accompanying lemon & salt, awakening the next morning with the headache from hell & your mouth tasting like the rind of Stilton! Well my Amigos, if that is something you can relate to then you have been drinking the bad stuff!

Here at La Hacienda we only serve Tequila & Mezcal made from

100% Agave. Let us guide you through....

TEQUILA & MEZCAL

Churros y Chocolate 4.95

Chilli Chocolate Fudge Brownie 5.25

A classic chocolate brownie laced with ancho chillito give it a special warmth, served with Joe Delucci’s vanilla ice cream

MEZCAL is a Mexican distilled spirit that is made from the agave plant, not a cactus as most people believe

is technically a Mezcal, however it is only made from the blue agave whereas Mezcal can be made from up to 28 different varieties of Agave

TEQUILA

TO SIP OR SHOOT ?.... That is entirely up to the drinker however ask a Mexican how he drinks his (or hers) & he will tell you to treat it like a fine Malt

CITRUS AND SALT ?.... Again the choice is yours. We serve our selection with a wedge of lime (no not lemon) & Himalayan Pink Rock Salt (not because its healthier but because it sounds better!)
