Verde MAR Mexican Animal Theme Restaurant - Merchant Reviews

Most Chinese only have the impression of Mexican food as Mexican chicken wraps, but real Mexicans never eat chicken rolls.

Verde MAR is a very special dish that always has a little green, even if it's a Mexican grilled wing, with a small parsley on the top. Mexico is located between the Florida Peninsula, the Yucatan Peninsula and the island of Cuba in the United States, and the weather is hot and dry, and cacti are a common green plant here. Mexicans are accustomed to eating cactus, and grilled cactus steak is a must-order dish at Verde MAR. Fresh cacti flown in from Mexico are lightly grilled over charcoal, sprinkled with sea salt and served with lime juice. The taste of cactus is similar to that of aloe vera, slightly sour and refreshing, and the taste is decent, so if you don't try it, you won't have eaten Mexican food.

A tapa must not be left out, also known as burritos, made from corn flour that is rolled into a U-shape and baked. Cooked minced meat, vegetables, cheese sauce and other fillings are then served together, and this is where the inspiration for the familiar Mexican chicken wrap comes from. Verde MAR, as an authentic Mexican restaurant, naturally does not have Mexican chicken rolls. Verde MAR's TACO is served with fresh guacamole and homemade salsa for an appetizing and refreshing finish.

There's nothing special about the grilled chicken wings, but the chef brings a secret chili sauce from Mexico, the world's second most spicy Habanero Chili, which is available in three flavors: non-spicy, mildly spicy, and hot. The chicken wings are numb and hot in the mouth, and the spicy taste extends all the way to the throat, which is particularly stimulating, and the whole chicken wings are refreshing after eating. It should be noted that the mild spicy has a high degree of spiciness, which is equivalent to the medium spicy in the mainland. At this time, it is recommended to order a cup of cinnamon rice milk, which can neutralize the pungency brought by the chili pepper to a certain extent.

It is worth mentioning that Mexican cuisine itself is light, and the obvious difference from other cuisines is that there is less salt, which is best described as a bland taste. Seafood dishes fail to remove the fishy smell, and the lightning rate is extremely high, so it is not recommended to choose.

The interior of the restaurant has a strong Mexican flavor, and each table is decorated with Mexican potted plants and Mexican customs, as if you are in a Mexican meal. Most of our customers are foreigners, the waiters speak English, and there is little Chinese on the menu, so if you don't speak English, there may be obstacles to ordering, so it is recommended to do enough to guide before going.
