LA TIA VALLADOLID — Restaurant in Valladolid

We were brought here by the touring service we hired as a recommendation. Restaurant is very hidden, you probably couldn't find it driving through the roads as it was in an alley. There are not many tables and we got there a a pretty good time so there was not many people. I have to say this place serves some Amazing food. We ordered the Poc-Chuc de Puerto (pork). It was thinly sliced pork with radishes, onion and cilantro accompanied by FRESHLY MADE corn tortillas. Omg..the combination of the great tasting meat with fresh tortillas was PERFECT! This was one of the best meals we had on our vacation. We wanted to go back but it was too far from where we were staying, about 2 hrs out ☹. They also had a plate with Longaniza which is a type of chorizo and that also came with fresh tortillas. There were 5 in our party and we left very happy and super full. The prices are great especially for the food you get and the service was also great. Out waiters were there to offer up refills or different drink selections. The owner even brought us out samples of other foods they offer just so we can experience the other menu items. If you like egg, try the Emcamisados. It's basically an egg enrobed into a corn tortilla baked fresh. Their Horchatas was also the best we drank and they also have other flavors to which I forgot but we enjoyed those too. The owner let us go into the kitchen where the ladies were making the corn tortillas by hand to watch. He even let me try and make one but of course mine looked like a football but it was a great experience. While we were back there we noticed that not only do they hand make the tortillas, the cook them over a wood fire. It smelt so good and the ladies put alot of pride and work into their food. I couldn't recommend this place more. When we go back, we will make it a point to go back and this time take extra. I hope you give it a try too. You will not be disappointed!

El restaurante “La tía de Kaua” ubicado en Valladolid, toma su nombre de los peculiares restaurantes ubicados a lo largo del tramo de la carretera Valladolid-Chichén Itzá. Éste restaurante, por su ubicación brinda a lxs vallisoletanxs la oportunidad de saborear un delicioso poc-chuc sin tener que salir de la ciudad. El servicio de alimentos está higiénicamente preparado, mujeres mayas se encuentran en la cocina preparando los alimentos y las tortillas para los comensales. El menú, es bastante atractivo, además del tradicional poc-chuc de cerdo, ofrecen también de pollo y longaniza asada, además de nachos sencillos y especiales. Venden desde media orden hasta charolas de alimentos para cuatro personas, las raciones son de un tamaño adecuado y con muy buena sazón. Te ofrecen salsas para acompañar tu poc-chuc y te las ofrecen con picante y sin picante lo que representa un gesto de empatía para quienes no consumen chile, lo que en otros lugares no sucede. Las tortillas para acompañar los alimentos son hechas a mano y son de un tamaño grande, otro distintivo que no se encuentra en lugares que venden poc-chuc. Un detalle a mejorar es que las tortillas con manteca no se les deja dorar en el comal y pierden ese atractivo que al menos con la tía de Cuncunul es un distintivo de esa tía ofrecer las tortillas con manteca muy bien doraditas, en el restaurante “La tía de Kaua” de Valladolid recién salen del comal les untan un poco de manteca, pero eso al menos a mí no me agradó…las prefiero doradas y bien ricas. El servicio de bebidas está conformado por refrescos y aguas de chaya, Jamaica y tamarindo. Consumimos una de chaya y estuvo ¡riquísima! El espacio donde está ubicado no es muy grande, sin embargo, tampoco es muy pequeño, es de paredes abiertas lo que le brinda frescura, el trato del personal fue adecuado y amable. El mobiliario es de alguna forma tradicional, de manera con tallado en las sillas, las mesas y sillas, por el tamaño del restaurante no son demasiadas. Hay plantas a los costados del espacio lo que brinda una imagen agradable. Otro detalle que me parece es adecuado, es la presencia del propietario quién está pendiente del servicio e incluso sirve en las mesas que se requiere. Salvo el detalle de las tortillas con manteca, me parece un lugar recomendable para visitar si tienes antojo de comer poc-chuc y no quieres salir...

Super flavoursome poc chuc, we had the dish for 2 that had pork, chicken and a spiced sausage on it and everything was really tasty and juicy but still with the charred flavour of the grill. It comes with avocado, tortillas, onions, black bean soup and we also tried one of the tortillas filled with an egg which was nice! Their flan for dessert has a nice caramel taste to it. Also their homemade chaya (spinach like) drink with lime is...
