For Mexicans, September is a very important month, one in which Fiestas, music, and food abound, and when the country dresses in green, white, and red. September is when Mexican Independence Day takes place, and at Villa La Estancia Beach Resort & Spa Riviera Nayarit, we celebrate with a yearly event that has become a favorite for us and our guests: the Chile en Nogada Fest at La Casona.
This event is our invitation for you to experience our culture through your senses, and an invitation to let Mexican culture, history, and tradition embrace you, one traditional Mexican food at a time!
One of Mexico's favorite dishes and a symbol of pride. It was created in 1821 in Puebla by nuns from the Santa Mónica Convent who wanted to celebrate Mexico's Independence, through food, but with the creative twist of only using seasonal ingredients that had the same color as Mexico's Flag!
A Chile en Nogada is a poblano chile, which you stuff with meat, fruits, and spices, and top with a velvety walnut sauce (Nogada), fresh pomegranate seeds, and parsley.
