Cinco de Mayo Cooking with Jalapeno's Mexican Grill

Cinco de Mayo is celebrated widely in the United States and in Mexico.  However many people think that this day is Mexico’s Independence Day, which it is not.  (The day is actually September 16th.)  May 5th commemorates the Mexican army’s victory over the French forces at the Battle of the Puebla – May 5th, 1862.  History trivia for you

Today’s show celebrates Cinco de Mayo by featuring a well-known popular restaurant in Walpole, MA – Jalapeño’s Mexican Grill.  Owner Ricardo Dorronsorro and Executive Chef Rene Alberto Hernandez show co-host Joe Murphy how to make Tilapia Veracruz.  Owner Ricardo shares some interesting facts about growing up in the Yucatan, and how his menu features many of mom’s recipes.
