MEZCAL SPIRIT OF OAXACA – Mexican
Downtown Fernandina at 302 Centre Street, where the team behind Pablo's Mexican Cuisine reopened with Oaxaca on the marquee and mole on the menu. This is the regional cooking: carne asada with chambray onions and roasted jalapenos, braised pork tips in a grandmother's guajillo chile recipe, braised beef under Oaxacan mole with toasted sesame, duck enchiladas con mole. The margarita list gets its own attention, the Fernandina included. Diners keep returning to the same points - a bright modern room, attentive service, and a move that upgraded everything. Fine dining that still tastes like home cooking.
