Mona taught me everything I know about real Mexican cooking. She worked for me for a while and I studied her methodology for everything I could get because she was such a good Mexican cook. She and her husband owned a Mexican restaurant and lost it when the landlord sold the building, so she came to work for me. I bless the day I met Mona, I learned at the knee of a true Master of Mexican cooking.
I've included the recipes that were the favorites of our customers. I served these dishes on a regular basis and even had guests tell me that our Mexican food was better than most of the Mexican restaurants in the area. Now, that was a compliment I can thank Mona for, and I did, and I do.
