Mijita


Although I have always wanted to visit Traci des Jardins’ Jardiniere for a pre-opera meal, since Kazu-san's sushi and easier parking beckon, I have never been. Lucky for us Jardiniere-challenged types, Mijita affords the opportunity to sample Traci's fare in the cocina Mexicana style while doing the Ferry Plaza promenade.

A casual dining spot, Mijita is cheerfully decorated in a Mexican theme without being cheesy. Brightly illuminated through bay windows with happily munching patrons on wooden furniture gives it a happy vibe unlike most tourist traps.

Mijita’s Taco de pescado, made with battered and deep-fried mahi, cabbage, and avocado in soft corn tortillas, is a yummy fare. There is more mahi mahi than batter and the mix of fish, veggie, and corn tortilla makes for a satisfying dish. Being a fan of jicama, the ensalada de jicama y aguacate, jicama, grapefruit and avocado with pumpkin seeds, is another good way to enjoy these ingredients and be reminded of all the fond memories of Mexico.
