The most popular holiday associated with Mexican cuisine is “Cinco de Mayo” (the 5th of May).Studies show, however, that this holiday is more popular in the United States than in Mexico. On this day, many people in Visalia, CA – as well as other locations around the world –eat Mexican food but have no clue what this day truly means in the history of Mexico.
What really happened on the 5th of May?
Contrary to popular belief and practice, Cinco de Mayo is not the Independence Day of Mexico from Spain—a misconception that many Americans have. According to the Mexican government and residents, Mexico had already declared their independence from Spain 50 years prior to the battle that this holiday is commemorating. September 16th is the actual day of independence that is celebrated throughout Mexico.

What better way to wrap up your lunch or dinner than to help yourself to an equally appetizing dessert? For some, dessert means a generous dollop of ice cream or a slice of cake. In Mexican restaurants, however, you can also find heavenly plates of Mexican flan and chimichangas that are absolutely divine.
Mexican Flan
Derived from the Old French word “flaon” (which, in turn, came from the Latin “flado”) or a “flat cake”, flan is perhaps among the oldest existing desserts, with roots dating as far back as to the Roman Empire. Back then, flan was made to use up all their extra milk and eggs. It gained popularity all over Europe and came to America with Columbus. Mexicans, on the other hand, had a taste of this dish when Spain invaded their country during the 1500s.

Colleagues may want to unwind by simply having a meal together when the shift is over. In certain cases, it can also present an opportunity to meet a potential business lead over dinner, but where do you want to treat them to? Many people in Visalia, CA, vouch for the modestly good quality of life in the area and Tulare County in general. It has a fun nightlife and family atmosphere. At the same time, though, the commercial activity may be an opening to introduce professionals from out of town to life in one of the San Joaquin Valley’s most bustling cities. Mexican restaurants in Visalia, CA, like Alejandra’s Restaurant can fill that void, especially since Mexican dishes serve more than just hot tamales, but also great talking points.

A lot of people love Mexican food because of its indulgent recipes. However, along with this indulgence often comes guilt from what they believe to be unhealthy eating habits. Contrary to that belief, however, this South American cuisine can actually be very healthy. All they need to do is to find authentic Mexican restaurants in Visalia, CA, so that they can have a taste of the real thing.
Grilled Up
Freshly-grilled food are sure winners on the quality dining front, and your preferred restaurant will have some items from Mexican cuisine worth sinking teeth in. Although some nachos may be served as complementary sides, ask your waiter not to serve them; replacing them with grilled dishes may work instead. One example of this will be grilled shrimp and a 22-ounce steak, backed up with steamed vegetables—that’s fiber and protein in a mean package just for you.
