CHAVEZ RESTAURANTS – Authentic Mexican in Capitol Hill Seattle
“When Gabriel Chávez emigrated from Durango to Seattle he brought his family’s recipes with him.
Lucky Seattle.
We’re talking carne deshebrada tacos, loaded with moist braised short rib meat piqued with dried peppers and topped with the frothy tomatillo-avocado salsa.
Guacamole served upon the crispy and slightly charred corn cake, totopo, which Chávez imports from Oaxaca and which taste like the earthen love child of popcorn and corn nuts.
And, oh, chile en nogada: a plump poblano stuffed with a meat and fruity walnut mixture that is surely the most complex set of flavors you’ll ever wash down with mescal.
