Taco de Carnitas: The perfect street food
One of our absolute favorite dishes at La Esperanza is the Tacos de Carnitas. These delicious tacos are made from juicy pork that is slowly cooked for hours in a mixture of spices, oranges and garlic. The secret to the perfect carnitas lies in the combination of time, patience and the right flavors. The slow braising makes the meat tender and aromatic, so that it literally melts in your mouth.
To preserve the authentic taste, we only use fresh, high-quality ingredients. The tacos are traditionally served with fresh coriander leaves, chopped onions and a spicy salsa. The interplay of flavors and textures makes this dish a real highlight. Try our Tacos de Carnitas and let yourself be enchanted by Mexican street food.
Ceviche: A fresh touch of the sea
Ceviche is another dish that is very popular with our guests. Originally from Peru, this dish has found its way into our kitchen and is prepared in the traditional way at La Esperanza. The secret of a perfect ceviche lies in the freshness of the fish and the balance of flavors. We only use the freshest fish, which is marinated in a marinade of lime juice, red onions, coriander and chili.
The lime juice naturally "cooks" the fish, resulting in a unique texture and intense flavor. Our ceviche is served with crispy tortilla chips and a special homemade salsa that adds an extra spiciness to the dish. This light and refreshing dish is the perfect choice for hot summer days or as a starter to whet the appetite.
Enchiladas Verdes: A Taste of Home
Our Enchiladas Verdes are a true classic and one of the most popular dishes at La Esperanza. The secret of this dish lies in the green tomatillo salsa that we prepare fresh every day. Tomatillos, a type of green tomato, give the sauce its characteristic acidity and distinctive flavor. The sauce is refined with fresh cilantro, garlic, onions and jalapeños and then combined with corn tortillas filled with tender chicken meat.
The enchiladas are baked with cheese and served with fresh cream, onions and cilantro. This dish is not only a taste sensation, but also a feast for the senses. The bright colors and aromatic scent make it a must for anyone who loves Mexican cuisine.
Guacamole: The art of the perfect dip
No visit to La Esperanza would be complete without our famous guacamole. This traditional Mexican dip is made from ripe avocados, lime juice, coriander, onions and tomatoes. The secret to a perfect guacamole lies in choosing the right avocados - they must be just the right level of ripeness to achieve the creamy consistency.
Our guacamole is prepared right in front of your eyes to guarantee maximum freshness. The combination of the creaminess of the avocado and the freshness of the lime makes this dip a real treat. Enjoy it with our homemade tortilla chips or as a side dish with our tacos and burritos.
Tres Leches Cake: The sweetest ending
To finish off your meal, we recommend our Tres Leches Cake, a heavenly dessert that is one of our bestsellers. This cake is soaked with three different types of milk (condensed milk, sweetened milk and whole milk), which gives it its distinctive moisture and creaminess. The secret is to let the cake sit long enough so that it fully absorbs the milk mixture without becoming soggy.
Our Tres Leches cake is served with a light whipped cream and fresh fruit, which gives it an extra freshness. This dessert is the perfect end to a successful meal at La Esperanza and is guaranteed to make every sweet tooth beat faster.
