Some other recent dishes on the menu are Chipotle cashew macaroni, turmeric shallot grain salad, Chuna salad with chickpeas, pickles, celery, onions, Serrano and Aji aioli and Waulinut Rizo Burrito, which has walnut and cauliflower Rizo mix, cabbage, peppers, onions, Aji aioli and pickled vegetables.

Owners Kevin and Maria Lebron are a husband-and-wife team with extensive experience as chefs. Besides the brick-and-mortar location, Pachamama also sells food at the Downtown Phoenix Farmers Market from 8 a.m. to noon every Saturday at 721 N.
