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.
