Flavors of Jalisco by Chef Amado Lopez of Casa Amado
Helping us channel our “party-people” energy towards spring, we’re pulling out our 1970’s vinyl and re-welcoming Chef Amado Lopez for a second frame residency… this-time-around celebrating The Flavors of Jalisco & The Southern Highlands regions of Mexico.
Training under Chefs Rick Bayless, Charlie Trotter, and Chef Shawn McClain, Chef Amado effortlessly turns out dishes of beauty with old-school flavor and new school style…for glorious effect.
Showcasing his love for hyper-seasonal ingredients, he brings us two weekends of tasting menus that hop between: ‘Red-Chile Marinated Beef with Crispy Corn Masa Cake’ ‘Pesca Del Dia with Yellow Mole and Masa Dumplings’ ‘Roasted Pork Belly with Chorizo-Tomato Sauce and Queso Fresco’ and ‘Salmon Escabeche in Warm Spices Served over Toasted Bread with Lime Aioli’
In our book, it’s Amado’s approach to unsung ingredients that makes him one of frame’s most progressive and exciting chefs to collaborate with.Experience the inventiveness in our Sarape Draped YURT Village in Personal Pods for six… or Socially Distanced inside@frame, Near the Open Kitchen.
Two weekends… Dinner One with the dreamy flavors of Jalisco. And Dinner Two, focusing on the Southern Highlands of Mexico which includes the States of Puebla, Oaxaca, and Chiapas.
Bonus: Maracas on the tables and a vegetarian option at check out.
