Xingones (pronounced “ching go nez”) has multiple meanings. It can have negative or positive connotations, as in a compliment. For local chefs Tino and Mayra, there’s nothing but compliments for the unique menus served at each of their pop-ups. They believe when you put your heart and soul into the food you prepare, the outcome will always be delicious, or as they say in México, “El amor empieza por la bariga!”
