On a wall of Casa Tixtla you can see a map of the State of Guerrero and the location of Tixtla. With more proud moments ahead, it has gained a name for itself in Colonia Algarín.

Guerrero's best known culinary tradition

This dish is the emblem of Casa Tixtla. Pozole (soup) is a pre-Hispanic food that is mixed with Spanish culture and established itself among the population in the community as party food. Guerrero has a special type of pozole, famous for its green mole.

Every day is Thursday

Every Thursday in Guerrero the famous green pozole is prepared, but at Casa Tixtla you can enjoy it every day. All the original ingredients are brought from Tixtla so that the customer feels as if they are in Acapulco, Iguala or Chilpancingo.

The house specialty

The Guerrero pozole is traditionally prepared with cacahuxintle corn, lean pork, pork or chicken head and a green mole with a base of pumpkin seeds, radish stalk, onion, garlic and is cooked with herbs like thyme and laurel.

Pozole is always accompanied by something

The Guerrero pozole is always accompanied by a traditional appetizer consisting of fresh cheese, tostadas (toasted tortillas), avocado, chicharrón (pork crackling) and sardines. This is added to the pozole with the classic oregano and ground toasted piquín chili. The final touch is a good mezcal from the southern Mexico area.
