After about two hours, relish the fruits of your labor at a table adorned with handmade serveware and festive decorations.

• We can easily cater to vegetarians by replacing the meat with oyster mushrooms (if you ask us, this veggie chile en nogada is even better than the original!). The dish is gluten free, but unfortunately contains dairy and nuts.
