Tinga Poblana has been around since 1881

The first written recipe appeared in La Cocinera Poblana by María Rita Velázquez de León, one of Puebla’s famous historic cookbooks.

Its name comes from the Nahuatl tingatl, referring to a shredded or mixed stew. And the one ingredient that remains essential? Smoky chipotle chilli. 🌶️

Today, Tinga Poblana is enjoyed across central Mexico, traditionally served on crispy tostadas with cream and cheese.
Come and try it here in CHIMICHECAS!

A little taste of Puebla’s history. 🇲🇽❤️

Chilaquiles are one of Mexico’s most beloved and traditional dishes.
Simple, comforting and full of flavour, they’re made with tortilla chips simmered in a rich red or green salsa and topped with fresh onion, cheese and crema.
It’s the kind of food almost every Mexican grew up eating and a true staple of Mexican breakfasts and brunch.

How do you like yours? Just cheese, with an egg, or with chicken?
