Mexican Villa
Description
Grab your chips and sauce! š½Ā Joy Robertson is digging into a true Ozarks original! Sheās sitting down with Garin Ferguson, the third-generation owner of Mexican Villa, to unwrap how a daring World War II pilot turned a taste of San Antonio into Springfieldās signature spin on Mexican food.
Hear howĀ Hargrave FergusonĀ and his friend Mike from Mexico CityĀ created those famous hot, mild, and sweet sauces still made from scratch today. Youāll laugh at the story of the fur coat that fell from the sky, learn how one thrifty sign swap gave birth to āMexican Villa,ā and see why fans (including Brad Pitt!) keep coming back for enchiladas, tacos, and that unforgettable sweet sauce.
Plus, Garin shares how the family keeps honoring tradition while stirring in fresh touches like margarita Mondays to street-taco Thursdays, all while serving up big flavor and even bigger heart.
