El Bajío is a group of ten restaurants in Mexico City which are run by Carmen Ramírez Degollado, noted for their colorful decoration and traditional cuisine from central Mexico which has received awards and praise from notable food experts. The restaurant business began in 1972 when Carmen’s husband Raúl Ramírez Degollado bought a restaurant selling carnitas in the northwestern borough of Azcapotzalco. Four years later, Raúl died and Carmen took over the business, expanding the menu and adding waiters. The restaurant was so successful that she was able to send her five children to private university. In 2006, El Bajío opened a second location in the center of the city and since then has grown to ten locations which serve about 120,000 diners a month. Carmen has become a notable chef in her own right, giving classes and demonstrations in Mexico and abroad as well as writing about twenty books. ==Description==
El Bajío consists of ten restaurants in Mexico City which are dedicated to preserving traditional Mexican cooking, with no aims of reinventing the food or making it haute cuisine. The dishes are from the center of the country, principally from the states of Veracruz, Puebla, Michoacán and Oaxaca. The signature dish is carnitas. Many of the cooks who prepare this dish are sons of those who worked at the first restaurant opened in 1972. Most of the other cooks and kitchen help have their specialties as well. These include a morning menu of Veracruz specialties such as gorditas with brown sugar and anise seed, Ramírez Degollado and Veracruz style tamales and atole with fresh fruit along with various egg dishes.〔〔 Later in the day specialties include ceviche verde, various mole sauces especially mole de olla and Xico style, fish Veracruz style and well as daily specials.〔 The restaurant’s food has been praised by Mexican cookbook author Diana Kennedy and Ferran Adrià, chef of the El Bulli in Spain who called it the best Mexican restaurant he has ever eaten at.〔〔 Much of the restaurant’s publicity is word-of-mouth.〔〔 The restaurant’s locations are in Azcapotzalco, Parque Delta, Polanco, Reforma 222, Parque Lindavista, Parque Tezontle, Santa Fe, Acoxpa, Interlomas and Colonia del Valle, all in Mexico City. The colorful décor of each restaurant is based on fine examples of Mexican handcrafts and folk art of which the owner and head chef, Carmen Hernandez Oropez, is an avid collector.〔〔 In addition, the restaurants are decorated for Mexico’s main holidays such as the feast of the Virgin of Guadalupe, Christmas, Mexican Independence Day and Day of the Dead .〔 The ten locations serve at least 120,000 diners each month, employing about 700 workers. As of 2007, sales totaled 1.5 million pesos per month. In addition the Azcapotzalco location offers banquet service. However, the main struggle for the business is to find and train suitable cooks and other help.〔
