Mexican Feast- I love Latin food. Latin America is all of the beautiful land south of the United States. Latin cooking thus embraces the cuisines of Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America. I particularly enjoy Mexican food, be it authentic Mexican or Americanized Mexican. It was Latin food and the guidance of a Puerto Rican chef named Felix who sparked my early interest in cooking and eventual pursuit of a professional culinary career. Latin food and Felix will always hold a special place in my heart.
