Second Course
Coastal Ceviche
Our Coastal Ceviche is a refreshing, vibrant dish that brings the flavors of the sea to life. Fresh, tender fish is marinated in zesty lime juice, infusing each bite with a bright, citrusy tang that perfectly balances the oceanic essence. The ceviche is elevated with the addition of candied jalapeños, adding a unique sweet-heat contrast, and paired with crisp cucumber, red onion, and juicy tomatoes for layers of freshness and crunch. A touch of creamy Creole mayo ties the dish together with a hint of richness, while a blue corn tostada serves as the perfect, crunchy base, enhancing both flavor and texture in every bite.
