In Mexico, a cenaduria is a small, unassuming place most often run by a family, serving casual fare like pozole and tostadas. There are a countless number of these little spots, each one a repository of family recipes and local traditions, and every Mexican has their favourite ones for specific dishes. Tonight Mariel González of Catrina's Kitchen evokes the spirit of the cenaduria with a very special pozole recipe, passed down across multiple generations, along side a few other authentic specialities from her home state of Nayarit in western Mexico.

If you want to get close to the Balkan soul, you will most likely find it gathered around a table, sharing stories, laughter, and the flavours of home-cooked meals passed down through generations.

We invite you to join us for a night of good food, great company, and the joy of sharing a rich and deep heritage. Whether you’re reminiscing about flavours from your own childhood or discovering these dishes for the first time, this family-style dinner promises to be a memorable experience.
