Description

Huanzontles Dinner Set One of my favorite foods of all time - huanzontles, a delicious Mexican vegetable related to amaranth and quinoa, painstakingly plucked from its inflorescence and mixed with salty queso fresco, fried in egg batter, and simmered in spicy tomato broth. It is a (very time consuming) labor of love, so not something I make often - but well worth it. Each order will include huanzontles, rice, epazote black beans, guacamole, tostadas (I’ve gotten WAY better at making them, I promise), and tortillas for you to warm on your own (sorry!). Sufficient food for 2 hungry people. Orders exceeding $60 may be delivered to proximal neighborhoods - please email with your address to request. Otherwise bags will be labeled with your name and left on the patio for contactless pickup. Alloy Thai uses the best local products to create the most authentic Thai flavors. Chef Josh Haynes is a native of Birmingham, AL, and in addition to working in some of the best restaurants in Birmingham spent a year studying in Bangkok, Thailand, surrounded by traditional cuisine. In particular, he is inspired by the remnants of Royal cuisine that linger in Bangkok, and the old-fashioned regional dishes of the Kingdom.
