If your culinary passion lies with fresh Mexican cuisine, look no further than Frontera Cocina, created by Chef Rick Bayless, for your next Flavors of Florida must-try meal! Reservations are strongly recommended at this Disney Springs eatery in Walt Disney World, where you can now enjoy the Mojo-Citrus Gunthorp Carnitas Tlayuda, with a suggested pairing of the limited-time Sunshine State Margarita! Both offerings are available this summer during Disney Springs Flavors of Florida. Take a closer look at both options below, as well as my suggestion for dessert!
Mojo-Citrus Gunthorp Carnitas Tlayuda
14-inch gigantic corn masa tostada topped with black bean spread, chihuahua cheese, Nueske’s applewood smoked bacon, Florida orange, avocado, pickled red onion, cilantro crema and chipotle salsa.
Sunshine State Margarita
LALO Blanco Tequila, key lime juice, Alma Finca Orange Liqueur, demerara sugar, Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur and Black Ant salt rim.
Looking For Dessert?
This one might not be a Flavors of Florida special, though I can’t help but always want to try something a bit fun and weird. The current Featured Dessert at Frontera Cocina is a Chocolate Sugar Skull, $29. This one looks incredible: a chocolate shell filled with coconut mousse, cornmeal cake with Nixta licor de elote syrup, and mixed berry compote that serves two! Isn’t it gorgeous?
