She started as a sandwich house that served warehouse workers, truckers, and other factory workers and it grew. She often has no menu because her customers come in and tell her what they want to eat. Her employees are women that know how to cook delicious Mexican food at home.

They buy ingredients fresh from the market and make their guacamole, chili, fajitas, enchiladas, tacos, pork chops, chicken mole, and other Mexican dishes. She makes her special lemonade and Mexican Coke. Many of her employees are in their 50 and 60’s. The restaurant is decorated with nostalgic collectibles that were given to Irma by her friends and family. It gives a unique ambiance to customers. They make some delicious dessert to end your meal. They make all their food from scratch, and many other Mexican restaurants do the same. Find a local Mexican restaurant that does this, and you will always be satisfied!.

Francis Pitt has made a name for himself in farm-to-table organics, working at restaurants in Portland, Seattle and Burlington, Vermont. While he has a taste for the extreme, most of his restaurant’s top sellers are much more down-to-earth, regularly featuring mushrooms gathered from the slopes of the Cascades, and fresh wild-caught seafood from the Oregon coast. Inspired by trends in Portland, his latest restaurant offers the ultimate chef’s table: dinner begins in the morning at his island collective farm, and 4 lucky guests every week get to follow the food, literally, from the field to the plate! Francis is a firm believer that you are what you eat — do you really want to be a chemistry set?
