GORDITA 101 🤓
Rule number one: you eat it with your hands.
Pick it up. Both hands, preferably.
Give it a little squeeze so everything settles into place. Don’t be scared if some salsa starts running down the side. That’s part of it...then go in for the bite.

You want a little bit of everything at once: the crispy corn masa, the creamy guac, the pork belly and that spicy salsa. Soft, crunchy, rich, spicy, fresh, all in one very loaded mouthful.

Will it get messy? Probably.
Will you need a napkin? Absolutely.
Should you try it anyway? Siiiii

Three years of Nu’u. Three years of sharing a little piece of how we grew up eating. 🇲🇽
“I didn’t know Mexican food could taste like this” will forever be one of our favourite things to hear.
Come hungry. We’ll look after you. ❤️

This week’s Taco Tuesday is all about carnitas.

We cook different cuts of pork together, slowly, so you get a bit of everything in every taco juicy meat, crispy bits, and that good pork fat that makes carnitas, carnitas.

We make our tortillas by hand, using fresh masa, and cook them to order.

Just the way we grew up eating tacos in Mexico.

Every week, we make a different special.

This Tuesday, it’s carnitas.

They say the best part of a taco is what’s inside, we have to agree but having a freshly cooked tortilla and a swirl of our birria gravy will make you fall in love. Come try and tell us yourself if you want a second date!
