Cocina Economica, 252 Amsterdam Avenue, NYC 1/05/13
Ensalada de Nopalitos (cactus salad): String beans, cilantro, breakfast raddish, jicama, toasted almonds, serrano pepper lime vinaigrette.
Cazuelas (casseroles): Served with fresh tortillas and stewed beans.
Carne de Cerdo: braised pork shoulder with zucchini, chayote, string beans, huauzontle and tomatilla salsa.
Costillas de res: Hoja Santa stewed short ribs with carrots, collard greens, string beans, epazote and puya guajillo chili.
Tiny, moderately priced restaurant, offering home-style Mexican cooking overseen by a native of Puebla. Not your usual enchilada-fajitas-taco joint. Platillos include both casseroles and grilled entrees. Dishes are well seasoned to enhance your enjoyment of the different types of chilis used. Spicy does not equal hot. Mexican hospitality at its finest--warm, welcoming and genuine.
