This Mexican dish is fabulous. Chile En Nogada es fabuloso, y es un plato nacional de México.
What do Chile En Nogada and MUSEO ROBERT BRADY have in common?
They are both generously stuffed! This museum is in Cuernavaca downtown (centro). It was a monastery, and then fell into disrepair. American Robert Brady (from Iowa) purchased the ignored property in the early 1960's and restored it, making it into his house.
Brady stuffed his home with his collections of art objects from around the globe. I thought most special were the Mexican pieces, and the tiled rooms. I and my classmate, Georgia, were shocked that the objects were showcased without protection, in the same place as it was when Robert Brady lived there. There are no "Don't Touch" signs, but there are "Don't Sit on the furniture" signs.
