Mercado Mexican Kitchen & Bar

Two adventurous brothers from Kenya seeked to travel the world in search of an eciting, authentic and sensory culinary eperience. Upon embarking on this journey they travelled to a small town in Meico called San Miguel de Allende, where they stayed at a local inn, run by Tia Maria.
Tia Maria was the soul of the community and was loved by everyone in the town. She had a vibrant laugh and a ?erce appreciation for good food. Each morning, Tia Maria would travel to the Mercado (the local marketplace) and return with a basket full of seasonal, fresh ingredients. At the age of 65, her plump face gleamed in joy, as she greeted the village, announcing her new ideas of recipes, and treasured ingredients that Pedro, her local trader, had hand-picked from the depths of the mountains, forests and rivers. She would prepare lavish, delicious meals for all her guests that ultimately satis?ed the curious tastebuds of the two brothers. Contented, they returned home, inspired, enlightened and yearning to share the eperience they had of the array of eotic ?avours of the Meican cusine.
Kenya known for its abundant, organic and fresh ingredients complimented Meican dining perfectly. The generous use of fresh herbs, vegetables and citrus would create the perfect combination of these deep Meican ?avours and thus provide an eperience like no other. And so Mercado was born; a blend of two powerful food cultures; a unique o?ering unlike anything Kenya had eperienced before.
