In Mexico, guisados are cooked dishes, especially stews and stir-fries. In Mexico City, where urban life doesn’t always allow for a home-cooked meal, guisados are one of the most popular street foods.Our goal at Mi Mero Mole is to serve traditional dishes from Mexico City that Chilangos love at a reasonable price. Our tortillas are made fresh using ground nixtamal rather than commercial Maseca. Everything we serve, including our moles, salsas, rice, and beans, are made from scratch.
