In Mexico City, where urban life doesn’t always allow for a home-cooked meal, guisados are one of the most popular street foods. It’s a quick way to grab something delicious on the go, without having to spend an hour sitting in the restaurant.

Now, you can enjoy some delicious guisados without having to travel all the way down to Mexico city! Portland Pedal Power is happy to deliver for Mi Mero Mole, an authentic Mexican restaurant dedicated to serving tasty food with fresh ingredients.

The goal of Mi Mero Mole is to serve traditional dishes from Mexico City that Chilangos love at a reasonable price. Their tortillas are made fresh using ground nixtamal rather than commercial Maseca. Everything served, including the moles, salsas, rice, and beans, are made from scratch.

Ordering from Mi Mero Mole is easy! Take a look at our menu, where you can fill your tacos, burritos, memelas, or plato machos with some delicious guisados, such as:

Res en Pasilla – Beef and potato in a dark chile and tomatillo salsa

Next Tuesday is Cinco de Mayo! A great opportunity to celebrate Mexican culture with great music, dancing, and of course, delicious Mexican food!

In case history wasn’t your thing, Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Mexican Army’s unlikely victory over French forces invading Mexico in 1862. It was a significant victory over the French, and inspired unity and pride throughout the country. Since that war, no European force has ever successfully invaded a country in the Americas.

So how will you celebrate this coming Cinco de Mayo? We have some fantastic Mexican restaurants you and your office can enjoy while celebrating:

Mi Mero Mole – In Mexico City, where urban life doesn’t always allow for a home-cooked meal, guisados are one of the most popular street foods. Mi Mero Mole serves traditional dishes from Mexico City made from scratch with tortillas made fresh using ground nixtamal.
