Pop Tarts Anyone?

It’s that time of the month again when we lock ourselves in the kitchen to bring you another remixto brunch.

This month’s menu will feature a croque señora (our twist on the French classic), Brent’s special chipotle chilaquiles (we guarantee it ain’t anything like your local cocina economica’s sloppy version) and gooey piña pop tarts, baked in house. And by popular request, we are reprising our candied bacon, lechon benedict and slushy sorbet mimosas.

So what are you waiting for? Brunch will take place Sunday, July 25 from 10am - 2pm at Casa Mexilio. Reserve your table now!

Tired of Reno Talk? Eat Brunch!

Last month, we launched our underground restaurant, remixto with our first in a series of monthly Sunday brunches. It was a hit!

Now, we’re back and ready to tackle round two. This month’s menu will reprise the breakout hit, lechon benedict, mixed up with two new creations – green eggs & jamón and a toasted (hen)wich. To top it off, we’re serving up a candied piña colada parfait and a few other surprise treats. Bloody marys and mimosas will be flowing, and this time we promise not to run out.

Brunch will be served at hotel Casa Mexilio on calle 68, #495, x 57 y 59. Seating is limited, so reserve a table now by emailing reservations@remixto.com or calling (999) 9 01 54 30.

Oh, and as for reno talk, we can’t promise you the complete absence of “did you use pasta tile throughout your house?”, but maybe the food will prompt other thoughts.

So, What’s Next?

Whew! Throwing the remixto brunch event last Sunday wiped us out. With tables fully booked, we made it through the day having held the kitchen together. Lars and Claudette of MexicaChica Getaways did a smashing job handling front of house. They poured the Bloody Marys like pros and made sure everyone left completely satisfied and craving for the next event. Read what the Casual Restaurant Critic had to say.

Which leads us to the question of what’s next? Well, we’re now about two weeks behind on our other projects, so this week is catch up time. Stan is still frantically drawing plans, sections and elevations to submit for permitting. Once those are in the queue, it’s then on to fleshing out more architectural details and finishes (it’s a never-ending process).

On the remixto side of things, Brent is figuring out what to do for our June event and sending out occasional tweets. Stay tuned for details.

A Gourmet Brunch in Merida

As mentioned in our previous post, we have been thinking about our empire. What should it be? Secretly, we have always wanted to create a “culinary salon” focused on gourmet Mexican food. Well, after spending years thinking about it, we decided it was high time to get going.

We are pleased to launch a new underground restaurant called remixto, open only one day per month. Who knows how the concept will develop, but for now, we’re assuming there are plenty of people out there who love a great Sunday brunch.

For our first date, May 2, we are taking over a hotel in Santiago between 10am and 2pm and will feature lechon benedict with homemade english muffins, french toast soaked in rompope and more. Check it out at remixto.com or view a sample menu.  

We would love to have your support for our innaugaral event. Seating is very limited, so reserve a table by emailing remixtobrunch@gmail.com or call (999) 9 01 54 30.
