Here’s a taste of what’s on tap today at the Beard House.

Cinco de Mayo, 7:00 P.M.
Adam Rose, Villalobos, Montclair, NJ
 

Thanks to the talented Adam Rose, the New York Times has declared that “New Jersey now has a modern Mexican culinary destination that wouldn’t be out of place in Los Angeles or Chicago.” We’ve tapped Rose, whose cooking draws on traditional recipes and indigenous ingredients, to present a spirited Cinco de Mayo feast. Get into the holiday mood with dishes like Jonah Crab Salad Sopes with Cucumber, Caviar, and Manzano Chiles; Seared Beef Tongue with Pistachio–Mulato Chile Salsa, Yerba Buena, Spring Peas, and Fingerling Potatoes; and Mole-Spiced Beef Brisket with Yuca, Huitlacoche, and Pipián Sauce.
