Lücha mixes contemporary culinary methods with traditional Mexican foods. "For example, we use the sous-vide method to infuse all of our proteins with regional Mexican flavors -- chile de árbol, morita, pasilla, guajillo -- and to precisely control the temperature and texture the food reaches over an extended period of time," he says. Lücha also uses a 170,000 BTU wok to do the final braising, stewing, smoking or roasting while preserving the ideal internal temperatures and textures of the dish.
