    Oaxacan Mexican

    A dimly lit room in Riverdale lined with Oaxacan pottery and clay masks sets the stage for cooking that respects tradition without performing it. House-made corn tortillas arrive with salsa verde and chile de árbol; the barbacoa tacos showcase lamb in its plainest form, while duck enmoladas swim in a dark mole negro layered with fruit and chiles. A focused mezcal program anchors the drinks.
