Celebrate Guacamole Day at an iconic Mexican restaurant
Every year on September 16, while Mexico commemorates its Independence Day, food lovers across the world celebrate another tradition: National Guacamole Day. Though perhaps unofficial in origin, this delicious holiday has gained international traction. Come to Chapulin, a Mexican restaurant, where guacamole has become more than just a topping; it’s a cultural staple.
Guacamole in Mexico: more than a side dish
Made traditionally from ripe avocados, lime juice, cilantro, onion, tomato, and chili, guacamole is both simple and deeply rooted in Mexican history. It dates back to the Aztecs, who mashed avocados and called it ahuacamolli, meaning “avocado sauce.”
Over time, the preparation evolved, embracing local and regional ingredients, but its essence remains unchanged: fresh, flavorful, and incredibly versatile. Today, guacamole is not just a side dish—it has become a star ingredient on many menus worldwide, particularly in the United States.
While dishes like a taco of Chuck roll Lorenza Chorreada —a regional specialty from Sonora served with meneado beans, melted cheese, and grilled meat—highlight guacamole as a flavorful complement, chefs are increasingly using it as the centerpiece of modern culinary experiences.
