Let’s face it; when you’re craving Mexican food, the options are plentiful. However, if you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in NH, finding a restaurant that serves nothing but the best can be a bit tricky. Sure, many places claim to provide an authentic dining experience, but at La Vaka, we deliver. In this article, we’re exploring some of the most popular and commonly offered Mexican appetizers at local restaurants – and, of course, how our dishes shine above the rest!

Ceviche
Known for its freshness and intense flavor combination, Ceviche is a sharable appetizer and one of the most popular in Mexican restaurants. So, what exactly is Ceviche? The main ingredients include fresh shrimp marinated in lime juice, combined with fresh cilantro, onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, jalapeno, and serrano peppers. Often served with freshly sliced avocado or mango, this is one dish you can feel great about eating!

Coctel de Camaron
To most, this appetizer offering is known simply as shrimp cocktail. However, when you serve it authentic Mexican-style, expect a little more! Crafted with pico de Gallo, cucumbers, jalapeno, and serrano peppers, gently tossed in a lightly spicy tomato base, Coctel de Camaron is served and enjoyed with crackers.

Table Fresh Guacamole
Hands down a customer favorite, tableside guacamole not only tastes amazing but adds to any dining experience! At La Vaka, we start with mashed avocados seasoned with a touch of salt and lime, add a few chopped onions, and spicy peppers to provide you with a tasty, fresh experience! Looking for a little more? Add bacon! Yes, bacon!

Street Corn
Possibly one of the most well-known and loved authentic Mexican offerings (besides tacos, of course) is Mexican Street Corn. Dating back to the Aztecs and Mayans, there are several variations of this multi-century-old meal. At La Vaka, we serve our fresh corn on the cob drizzled with mayo, chili powder, and fresh lime juice. Sprinkled with Cotija cheese and fresh cilantro, we promise you’re going to love it!
