Bowtie pasta tossed in a light, tangy tequila jalapeno lime cream sauce, topped with feta cheese and fresh cilantro.

The Tequila Jalapeno is the pasta with a passport. The cream sauce gets brightness from lime, warmth from jalapeno, and a little swagger from tequila, staying light and tangy instead of heavy. Crumbled feta and fresh cilantro finish every bowl.

It is the adventurous order on our pasta menu and one of the dishes guests ask about by name after trying a bite from someone else's plate. Popular enough that it earned its own catering tray. Served daily at California Grill & Bar in Whittier for dine in, pickup, and delivery.
