  5. Product Quality • We prepare all of our food FRESH each day, from scratch using traditional recipes and techniques inspired from the Rio Grande Valley regions of Northern Mexico, Texas and New Mexico. Our hand shredded chicken is 100% fresh chicken breast. Our shredded beef and pork are all USDA Choice cuts. Our chilies are shipped in from the growers; our green chilies come from Hatch, New Mexico and red chilies are from Mexico. • We hand make all of our tortillas each day and bake all of our “wonderful” desserts on site. Since nothing is pre-made, and every order is made fresh to the customers request, it is no problem for us to create something special for them that is not on the menu. • Cafe Rio Sauces, salad dressings, salsas and guacamole are prepared fresh through out the day and include no artificial ingredients. • The average Cafe Rio restaurant squeeze over 1,000 limes every morning – fresh lime juice is one of our key ingredients.
