pPacheco was born in Mexico City and moved to California as a teenager. His Mexican roots come through in dishes that can be quite piquant — layered with heat and spice and sometimes surprising bursts of sweetness. One night, the soup du jour was a rich, dark puree of black beans with a pronounced chile kick, topped with tortilla strips and a drizzle of cilantro oil. Grilled Caesar salad is an appealing mix of long sections of charred romaine, creamy-spicy dressing and crunchy garlic crostoni. Pacheco’s signature sesame crusted salmon is nicely cooked, combining a crispy crust and moist, pink flesh. And a green curry beurre blanc makes a tasty accompaniment. But a strawberry red onion ragu, layered between the salmon and a scoop of sticky rice, is a rather jarring, pickled-sweet contrast.a href=http://food-drink-recipes-free.com/blog/img/782d7ef91fa1_11C40/img_002.jpgimg title=img_002 style=border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; display: inline; margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px; border-left: 0px; border-bottom: 0px height=145 alt=img_002 src=http://food-drink-recipes-free.com/blog/img/782d7ef91fa1_11C40/img_002_thumb.jpg width=209 align=left border=0 //a /p
