"At Mayan Café, chef Bruce Ucán serves dishes rooted in traditional Mayan cuisine utilizing local ingredients. Ucán, who identifies as Mayan Indian, hails from the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico. He can often be found shopping for ingredients at local farmers markets. While everything on the menu is worth a taste, a visit to the NuLu restaurant wouldn’t be complete without an order of the tok-sel lima beans, topped with a blend of roasted, ground pumpkin seeds, lime, salt, and sesame oil. For an al fresco dining experience, reserve a table on the patio, which opened in 2024." - Lennie Omalza
