After I ate my meal, I interviewed the waitress Elda Terraza. She has been working at this restaurant for 20 years. My perception of Elda is that she is a very nice lady. From this interview, I learned that this building is 300 hundred years old. People have dinned in this building since the colonial periods. I also learned that Las Mananitas means many things-happy times, life's celebration and all the good things to come. One of the questions that I asked was what are the other popular dishes in this restaurant? She stated that the flat enchiladas are another popular dish. The price for the flat enchiladas is $8.75, but if you want it with huevo, it is $9.75. I also asked where do you get your food products? She answered that they get some of their products from Buenos; however, she also state that "they mostly make everything themselves fresh." I also learned some of the ingredients for the plato de combinacion. Some ingredients for this dish are salt, bacon grease for the beans, and corn bread for the chili relleno. Another aspect that I learned was the way the chefs cook their enchiladas. First, they fry the tortillas. Then, they place the meat that you ordered into the tortillas. Finally, they put the chili you order on top of the enchiladas. They also cook the rice by boiling or frying it. Finally, the last feature that I learned was that customers can ask for a tour of the facility. I would recommend that you take a tour of the building if you are going to dine in this restaurant This is where the interview ended. The video that I have placed above is to give you a taste of the environment and the atmosphere of the restaurant. My next restaurant review will be El Patio De Albuquerque.
