In Culinary News: T’ähä Mexican Kitchen
The father and son team that owns and operates the Little Hacienda Mexican restaurants in Branson, Missouri, is going back to its roots bringing the cuisine of Central Mexico to Kansas City—specifically meaty dishes from the state of Hidalgo, Mexico, where Fidel Gomez grew up on a farm. He and his son, Jose Gomez, will open T’ähä Mexican Kitchen this spring in the former Jax’s Fish House & Oyster Bar location in the West Plaza. The name means “dream” in Otomi, which is the largest group of Indigenous people in the Central region of Mexico. With the growing interest in discovering the food from various regions in Mexico, the family feels the time is right to celebrate the cultural and Indigenous dishes of their Mexican home state, like barbacoa, where cuts of beef, lamb, or goat are slow roasted over an open flame. Game meat, such as deer and rabbit, may also grace the menu, as it is hunted and prized in both the Midwest and Central Mexico. Find them on Instagram.
