The Irish adore Mexico, and who can blame them?  In this country, the range of Mexican ingredients has vastly improved, and we can now regularly order huevos rancheros for brunch.  We talk with Lily Ramirez, founder of the shop and cooking school Picado and, for many years, a keeper of the authentic Mexican flame. We discuss her observations on the Mexican transformation in Ireland, while also getting the scoop on what brought Lily here (true love); why she won’t eat avocados; why burritos, while tasty, are not Mexican; and where she eats tacos when she isn’t making them herself.
