Carnita

Nestor, the property manager, decided to host a feast of "carnita" this afternoon for his employees and family.


Xavier (the gardener) was given the task of cooking the food.
Apparently he was quite a skilled cook in his previous life.
No fancy barbeques for these guys!


The carnita pot held pork meat, cheeks, liver, kidneys and skin.
I tried it all with a squeeze of lime juice. Delicious but a little bit was enough!


Nestor (turquoise shirt) is our property manager.
Beto & Cesar, two of his brothers, do odd jobs around the Quinta and several other properties.

The cooking, meal prep and eating took place at the next door neighbour's under their infinity pool, almost like being in an open air basement! By the time the meat was ready there were several maids and handymen gathered as well as Nestor's family. A cooler of beer, freshly chopped salsa and bags of limes were assembled. After the feast Nestor's family enjoyed the infinity pool upstairs.
