[Enrique] Mexico is a country that I love. But, growing up, most of my heroes where chefs in Europe. But as I started to get more familiar
with Mexican cuisine, my heroes became the tortilla ladies. Because when you realize
the richness of your own culture, you become stronger. Pujol has been open for 18 years. It's not what you find

can be almost poetic
