Mexican cuisine is known for its intense and varied flavours, colourful decoration, and variety of spices. Most of today’s Mexican food is based on ancient traditions, such as the Aztecs and Maya, combined with culinary trends introduced by Spanish colonists. Mexican foods tend to be very colourful because of the rich variety of vegetables (among them are the chilli peppers, green peppers, chillies, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes) and meats in Mexican food. A highlight of Mexican drinks is Tequila, Margarita. Tequila is made from the blue agave (Agave tequilana azul), which is native to Mexico. In Mexico, tequila is drunk straight without salt and lime. The Margarita is one of the most common tequila-based cocktails in the world, made with tequila mixed triple sec (an orange-flavored liqueur) and lime or lemon juice, often served with salt on the glass rim.
The event, is jointly organised by the Hanoi Melia Hotel and the Embassy of Mexico in Vietnam, aims at presenting the country from both culinary and cultural point of view from Mexico.
