Mexico’s crown in global gastronomy
Mexican cuisine is more than food — it’s history, culture, and emotion served on a plate. Since 2010, it has been recognized by UNESCO as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
As Anthony Bourdain (2014) once said:
"Whatever you think you know about food changes when you truly taste Mexico."
On Homlunch, you don’t just read about these dishes… you experience them in real homes, with recipes passed down for generations.
🍽️The 10 Mexican culinary jewels according to experts and celebrities
1. Tacos al Pastor
Born in Mexico City, inspired by Lebanese shawarma. Pork marinated with achiote and spices, served with pineapple.
American chef Rick Bayless said: “A well-made taco al pastor is a poem on a tortilla.”

A complex sauce with more than 20 ingredients, including cacao, dried chiles, and spices. A symbol of Puebla.
3. Cochinita Pibil
Pork marinated in achiote and bitter orange, wrapped in banana leaves and slow-cooked underground. A Yucatecan treasure.
