Xitómatl n. Náhuatl (Aztec language) name for tomato.
Aztec fruit with mexicana which the ancient Mexicans made one of the greatest contributions to gastronomy in the world.
Can one even imagine Italian or Spanish cuisine without the tomato?
High Mexican cuisine is constantly evolving, beginning with its pre-Colombian roots, then combined with elements brought to the New World during the Colonial period, up to today's most recent Mediterranean, Continental, Caribbean and Asian influences.
The decor of earth tones, reminiscent of our Mexican landscape, combined with the artwork of Mexican artists, creates an elegant yet calm ambiance in which the most distinguished palate can experience a most sublime meal. |
