Menu refresh at Mamasita under new chef
Martin Zozaya has been appointed as head chef at Melbourne Mexican restaurant Mamasita, which has just unveiled a new look.
The Mamasita menu will get a revamp under Zozaya’s leadership, with an emphasis on seafood and chargrilled dishes according to co-owner Nick Peters.
New dishes include handmade burrata with dark mole, almonds, baby corn and puffed rice along with shellfish tostada with cured mussels, minced prawns and salmon, Acapulco coctel sauce and guacamole. Seared ocean trout, prawns, calamari with confit cascabel mojo and beef short rib with chiles toreados and arbol chimichurri will also be on offer.
“Martin’s inherent understanding of Mexican ingredients, techniques and dishes is the perfect fit for what we continue to endeavour to provide for our beloved guests – a modern take on Mexican cuisine, suited to Melbourne,” said Peters.
