The vibrant,
lively and yet chic mood & ambiance inside was quiet apparent from the title
board of blue background setting out the illuminated letters announcing “Rosa
Mexicano”. The festive mood was
accentuated by its decor in signature hues of purples, pinks, reds & oranges and in the dramatic architectural designs featuring cascading water walls.
I entered to the warming sight of two chubby kids
helped by a waiter to don the “Sombrero” (Spanish for "Hat") hats set
out on a table. Clearly Rosa Mexicano was in celebratory mood for its
“Irresistible Tacos Festival” from February 15th- March 15th, 2015.
It was a
pleasure to witness the Guacamole en Molcajete come alive right in front of my
eyes as it got prepared on fresh table-side in a lava-rock mortar. The avocados,
freshly chopped reds of tomato, greens of jalapeno & chilies combined together
to transform into one of the most delicious dips I have tasted. Undoubtedly the
award winning dishes, Guacamole as well as the Frozen Pomegranate Margarita
deserved a big bow.
Clearly Rosa
Mexicano keeps customer satisfaction at top of the heap because it had dining
options both for vegetarian as well as vegan diners. Vegetarians can try
out the rich and cheesy Taco De Queso (Cheese
Taco) or the crispy and flavorful Mixed Vegetarian Tacos. The Non-Vegetarians are spoilt for choice and can even go for sea food tacos like Taco de Camarones
(Shrimp Tacos), or Taco De Pollo (Chicken Taco) and Taco De Crana Asada
(Braised Short Ribs Tacos). All the dishes tried out were anchored in the
culture and traditions of Mexico, while incorporating modern innovation and
regional accents.
Having food outside is no longer about satisfying
your basic need, i.e. to eat food and douse hunger. Eating out is all about the
dining experience and if that is not a wholesome piece of goodness one doesn't want to repeat the experience. Rosa Mexicano scores brownie points on many accounts,
from ambiance, to service, to quality food and comes across as a place one
would like to repeat and revisit their eating experience.
