Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Food is always an important part of Mexican celebrations so, to commemorate Las Fiestas Patrias, Kaiser Maximilian is serving up a special dinner menu featuring traditional Mexican dishes with an elegant and modern spin throughout the month of September.

Don't miss their special Chiles en Nogada, the Mexican dish that is most emblematic of the holiday. A specialty of Puebla, Chiles en Nogada are not your everyday chiles rellenos. Made from red, white and green ingredients to symbolize the colors of the Mexican flag, they are roasted chiles poblanos stuffed with a sweet-savory pork and fruit picadillo filling and served at room temperature with a delicate fresh walnut cream sauce topped with pomegranate seeds.
