Doña Irma and Cheque's Story

The history of this delicious business begins several years ago, when Doña Irma's family started with the tradition of making gorditas full of flavor. Over time, this culinary heritage has been passed down from generation to generation, carrying with it the love and dedication that characterizes each dish. Seven years ago, Doña Irma decided to embark on her independent culinary journey, continuing the rich family tradition and adding her own special touch.

Doña Irma and her husband Cheque have built a cozy rooftop where you can enjoy a unique gastronomic experience. From very early in the morning, the aroma of freshly made gorditas invites passersby to stop and taste these dishes that are a true feast for the palate.

The Culinary Experience

At Gorditas Doña Irma, every dish is prepared with love and dedication. The friendly staff is always ready to serve you with a smile, making sure that every customer feels at home. Here you can choose from a wide variety of options: gorditas, sopes, quesadillas, molletes and, of course, the incomparable gorditas stuffed with stews.

Apaseo el Grande's specialties are gorditas stuffed with stews ranging from red and green deshebrada, to chicharrón duro, tinga, shrimp pancakes, nopales and picadillo. Each of these delicacies is accompanied by a generous slice of ranchero cheese that gives it that special touch that will make you want to come back for more.
