Casa Valadez – Anfitrión & Gourmet (Guanajuato, Mexico – 2019)

Once upon a time, 40+ years ago, I grew up in a lower-middle class home, and we had enough money to go out to dinner exactly once a year. That day was Christmas Eve and the restaurant was the Acapulco in Alameda, California. It was our family tradition to go there every year on December 24.

I went back once in the 1990s, and it wasn’t the same. Ownership has changed since the 1990s, at least once, so there is no way to go back to that experience.

I haven’t kept up the going-out-for-Mexican-food-on-Christmas-Eve tradition, although we have done it a few times over the decades. Maybe this is the year to give it another shot?

…I woke up with a smile on my face as I was going to see Rammstein in Copenhagen. But first I needed breakfast so I headed to the Meatpacking District and stumbled upon Hart Bageri, run by an ex-Noma chef, for these beauties.
