It was a pleasant surprise when I was introduced to the team behind Chila and learned about their story and their venture. Their artisanal masa for tortillas, which is prepared in the same natural way my grandmother prepared it, was the ultimate addition to making the tastiest tortillas in Dubai.

Working with Chila’s masa brings me closer to my roots while being so far away. After 10 years in the region, the search for an artisanal nixtamal corn masa is over. I cannot remember the last time that I worked with a masa of this exceptional quality outside of Mexico and I am looking forward to the diversity of Mexican dishes that I will be creating with the masa.
