Mexico can be explored from a distance thanks to its rich and varied cuisine. In Córdoba, El Tecolote Antojitos Mexicanos proposes to do it with tacos, quesabirrias, mole, ceviche, quesadillas and guacamole, with a menu that brings together preparations linked to different areas of the country. The restaurant, located on Manuel de Sandoval Street, has more than ten years of experience and claims home-made cuisine, linked to family recipes. The proposal is based on the idea of ​​transporting customers to Mexico with each appetizer, and making them discover, with each one of them, a different part of Mexican gastronomy. Thus, the menu combines popular dishes with preparations associated with specific regions, from Michoacán-style carnitas to quesabirrias originating from Jalisco. Among the tacos, there are pork carnitas confit at a low temperature, accompanied by pico de gallo, or tacos al pastor, with roasted pineapple, cilantro and onion. You can also order an assorted taquiza that brings together eight tacos of different preparations: carnitas, chile pasilla, al pastor and cochinita pibil. The quesabirrias are another of the outstanding proposals. They are served in corn tortillas, filled with beef birria and accompanied by their consommé, which can be used to dip the quesadillas or taken as a soup. The menu also includes other Mexican specialties such as chilaquiles, enchiladas and flautas, along with chipotle chicken quesadillas or gringas al pastor with marinated pork and roasted pineapple. The gastronomic tour continues with dishes such as fish ceviche, prepared with tiger's milk, pico de gallo, cucumber and passion fruit sorbet. A combination that provides a fresh and acidic counterpoint to a menu marked by intense flavors, sauces and spiciness. Mole poblano also occupies a prominent place in the gastronomic discourse of El Tecolote. For the establishment, this dish represents an important part of the Mexican culinary identity and brings together sweet, spicy and spicy flavors. The offer is completed with different creations to share, such as the house tortilla chips, covered with beans, cheddar, chorizo, tecolota sauce and jalapeño, or the tortilla chips with guacamole. Guacamole is precisely one of the specialties that the restaurant highlights in its menu. It is prepared fresh with avocado, tomato, onion, cilantro, chili, lime and salt, and is accompanied by homemade tortilla chips. El Tecolote links this preparation with a family recipe passed down for three generations and also prepares it for different types of events, from weddings and fairs to private celebrations. The menu also allows you to accompany the food with Mexican drinks. Among them are fresh lemon waters with chia, hibiscus and tamarind, as well as Corona, margaritas and micheladas. The latter is prepared with beer, Clamato, black sauces, Tabasco and lime juice. Beyond the tacos, the menu expands the journey through Mexican gastronomy with different melted cheeses, burritos and wires. Among the latter are chicken or beef versions, sautéed with peppers, onion, chorizo ​​and bacon and accompanied by flour tortillas. Burritos can be prepared with chipotle chicken, al pastor pork or chilorio, a stewed pork preparation characteristic of northern Mexico. In the quesadillas section there are also proposals with huitlacoche, rajas with corn and pumpkin flower or zucchini, depending on the season. The result is a menu that goes beyond the best-known tacos and proposes different ways of approaching Mexican gastronomy, with family recipes, dishes linked to different regions and a selection of appetizers designed to be shared around the table. In addition, the restaurant offers 'dishes' off the menu during the weekends. Something that makes it a very attractive option to try new Mexican flavors.
