In a crowded hall, full of mexicans, some french and germans, with mexican music, tequila, food and beer, we celebrated our Independence Day.
We ve been here in Europe for 2 months now, and we already had or first big event cooking and organising the event.
The menu consisted in typical mexican food- No, not chile con carne or burritos thats not even mexican for gods sake.
We prepared Mole with minced chicken breast. Ceviche cockatils (sort of shellfish soup), Pozole, Arroz a la mexicana, etc.
As for me, the pastry chef, I prepared with my partie Arroz con leche (riz au lait), torrejas (sort of pain perdu or french toast).
The afternoon had a great ambience, full of joy and happiness , typical of mexicans, that contagied even the straight-faced boring french people.
A group of musicians played some classical mexican music and all together with the Ambassador claimed "Viva Mexico"
