  Dear Customers, old and new,

  El Buen Café is once again a full-time restaurant, from 9am-9pm, Tuesday-Saturday. We’ll be featuring a seasonal menu that will change every three months. To enhance this experience, we’re planting a large organic garden with fruit trees and herbs, which will provide for the café as well as the cooking school. It’s a new era in the restaurant’s 28-year history.

  In the summer, Mexico’s markets transform, just like the countryside, into places of exquisite abundance. Perusing the stalls, you’ll find buckets filled with just-picked squash blossoms and tuna in shades of yellow, plum, and scarlet. Pomegranates are piled onto tables, some split open to show their shimmering red seeds. Multi-colored cobs of corn roast over charcoal fires and chunks of huitlacoche, just cut from these same cobs, entice people who long for the season’s delicacies.

  Our first menu features dishes derived from this natural bounty as well as old-time café favorites. Here’s a sampling:

  Guacamole in the molcajete
  Seared Cheese with Roasted Tomato-Poblano Salsa

  Tortilla Soup
  Squash Blossom Soup
  Pear Salad with Candied Pecans
  Chicken Curry Salad

  Huitlacoche Quesadillas
  Chiles en Nogada
  Salmon with Mango-Chipotle Salsa
  Grilled Vegetable Fajitas
  Shrimp al Ajillo

  Fried Chicken Tacos with Guacamole
  Mole Enchiladas
  ….plus more

  Please come and join us to bring in a new era.
