Crema, chili, and cheese on top of grilled corn have ceased to be a street cart product. Differences now come in form of salads, dips and side dishes throughout the nation.
Fresh, Bold Salsas
Dull condiments are being substituted with house-made salsas using tomatillos, citrus and herbs roasted. They make matters complicated and indicate regional influences.
Handmade Tortillas
A focus on making fresh and handmade tortillas has had the effect of making the Mexican-inspired dishes high quality with the focus on craftsmanship and authenticity.
Affordable Yet Flavorful
The accessibility is based on street food. These meals contain strong flavor without use of costly ingredients, and thus, have wide appeal.
Regional Diversity
American diners are increasingly conscious of the wide range of regional cuisines of Mexico – both of seafood effects of the coast and of slow-cooked inland delicacies.
Food Truck Culture
Food trucks have aided the expansion of dishes that are made in a street style to unfamiliar neighborhoods and they have become convenient and ubiquitous.
Appreciating the Culture via Food
With the growing demand of diners to find authenticity and story behind the meals they consume, Mexican food with a street culture is all history, tradition and community in a single bite.
