Puesto Launches ‘Plates’: A New Twist on Mexico City Flavors
02.26.24
Expanding its acclaimed menu of contemporary Mexico City cuisine, Puesto Mexican Artisan Kitchen & Bar now proudly presents a new category, "Plates," across all its venues. These Plates are available for both Lunch and Dinner, designed as entree selections that patrons can savor either before or with Puesto's celebrated tacos.
Each Plate is accompanied by handcrafted, organic, non-GMO blue corn tortillas, seasoned with herb-lime rice, and accompanied by classic black beans. At present, Puesto is excited to offer three distinctive Plate options, each meticulously crafted to emphasize both taste and harmony:
- Short Rib Birria (GF): Featuring succulent short rib paired with radish, onion, cilantro, Jalisco salsa, avocado, and a rich consomé.
- Pozole Verde (GF): A hearty dish of S.C. Farms pork, hominy, salsa fresca, cabbage, radish, cilantro, and avocado.
- Shrimp A La Plancha (GF): Prepared with Mexican shrimp, garlic butter, red onion, jalapeño, guajillo chile, avocado, and a tangy tamarindo-chile sauce.
Complementing the culinary additions, Puesto's beverage program introduces exciting new cocktail selections, elevating the craft bar experience. Beau du Bois, Puesto's VP of Bar & Spirits, unveils innovative drinks like the Honeydew Mezcal Margarita and Ginger Margarita, along with a novel Cadillac Margarita presentation that includes a miniature bottle of Grand Marnier.
These fresh menu items are available at all Puesto locations, with further details, including complete menus, locations, and operating hours, accessible online at eatpuesto.com.
