Portozuelo: A Tribute to Origins and a Commitment to Sustainability
Step into a world where chili pepper greenhouses burst with fiery colors, papaya and guava trees whisper memories of youth, and rows upon rows of vegetables thrive: cabbage, lettuce, cilantro, fragrant herbs, and edible flowers. Native corn varieties, yellow, black, and red, stand tall in a testament to sustainable practices. Even the animals – ducks, piglets, rabbits, and chickens – roam freely, contributing to the farm's natural harmony.
This philosophy translates directly to the plate. Each dish at Portozuelo is a symphony of fresh, seasonal ingredients, a testament to Alejandro's unwavering commitment to sustainability and slow, wood-fired cooking. Whether it's a succulent barbacoa, the melt-in-your-mouth carnitas, or a fragrant lamb barbacoa, the flavors are pure Oaxaca.
But Portozuelo isn't just about delicious food; it's about an immersive experience. Weekends transform this haven into a unique culinary destination. Imagine yourself surrounded by nature, savoring a traditional barbacoa – slow-cooked to perfection over an open fire – accompanied by a symphony of stews and fresh, garden-to-table snacks. Each bite is a journey through Oaxaca's rich culinary tapestry.
