La Esquina ; Dishes to Share

Quesadillas, enchiladas and guacamole are the real gems of this menu. Filled with melting cheese and carefully chosen ingredients, the quesadillas offer an explosion of flavours. The enchiladas come in several versions, with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. Homemade, the creamy, spicy guacamole brings a touch of freshness to the whole meal.

Lovers of spicy sensations are not left out. The homemade hot sauces add an extra dimension to each dish, with controlled intensity. The menu thus invites a culinary journey to the heart of Mexico, all about sharing.

Mexican Cuisine, a UNESCO Heritage

Traditional Mexican cuisine has been on UNESCO’s list of intangible cultural heritage since 2010. It relies on an ancestral trio: corn, beans and chilli. Corn is turned into tortillas, the base of quesadillas and enchiladas. The avocado, native to Mexico, gives rise to guacamole. The sauces, more or less spicy, bring character and colour to each dish. A cuisine designed above all to be shared.

La Esquina ; Mexico to Share

From the moment you arrive, the welcoming, vibrant atmosphere of the restaurant charms. Sharing this culinary journey with friends makes it even more special. Between quesadillas and enchiladas, the meal turns into a symphony of flavours. For some, it even opens a new window onto Mexican culture. A welcome escape in Lausanne, all about conviviality. A victim of its success, the address is often full, so booking is wise.

After the meal, Mon-Repos park is perfect for a spring stroll (in French). To keep travelling, Maza (in French) blends flavours from Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
