Made in Amsterdam. Rooted in Mexican flavour.

El Jefe is a local Amsterdam food maker with Mexican flavours at its heart. Its premium nachos are made in Amsterdam with white corn from Mexico and described by the supplier as hand-fried. It gives restaurants and hotels a strong local product story as well as a carefully chosen base for the dish.

El Jefe Primo Salsa ↗

Quality starts before the toppings.

Taste the chip on its own, then with your chosen accompaniments. Look for corn flavour, a satisfying crunch and a balance that still works with the last bite. Guacamole, roasted salsa and a carefully chosen cheese deserve a base selected with the same attention.

At home on a considered menu.

El Jefe is used by high-end restaurants and five-star hotels. Give it a place wherever a relaxed dish should receive the same attention as the rest of the service.

The restaurant starter

A crisp, generous portion alongside freshly made guacamole and roasted tomato salsa. Serve the dips separately and let the corn remain part of the flavour.

The hotel lounge

Build a composed sharing plate with warm black beans, melted cheese, pickled red onion and a fresh lime finish. Keep the presentation easy to share and the toppings in proportion.

Room service

Present the chips and wet accompaniments separately, ready for the guest to combine. Test the dish over your actual room-service journey before putting it on the menu.

From our kitchen journal

From hotel lounge to caviar canapé.

A premium tortilla chip can carry a far more considered bite than classic loaded nachos. See how El Jefe becomes a fine-dining canapé with tuna tartare, caviar and restrained garnishes—and why the chip still matters.

El Jefe nachos: your questions answered

Where are El Jefe nachos made?

They are made in Amsterdam with white corn from Mexico. This combines local production with the Mexican ingredient at the heart of the product.

What makes them a premium choice?

The product combines local Amsterdam production, Mexican white corn and a hand-fried finish. For your menu, the final test is a tasting: assess the chip on its own and with your intended toppings, portion and service time.

Are they suitable for restaurants and luxury hotels?

Yes. They are used by high-end restaurants and five-star hotels and suit starters, sharing dishes, hotel lounges and room service. You choose the presentation and accompaniments to match your kitchen.

What are the ingredients?

The published ingredient list is corn, sunflower oil and salt. Use the current packaging or product specification for the supplied batch when completing your menu information.

Are the nachos ready to serve?

These are finished nacho chips, ready to portion and dress. They are not uncooked tortillas. Follow the pack instructions if warming them and add fresh or wet toppings close to service.

Can I offer a vegan or gluten-free dish?

The listed ingredients are plant-based, so check your toppings as well when creating a vegan dish. El Jefe states that no gluten-containing ingredients are deliberately added, and the chips are made from corn, which is naturally gluten-free. However, some raw materials and products are handled in environments where cross-contact with gluten cannot be fully excluded. The nachos are therefore not officially offered as gluten-free. For guests with coeliac disease or a strong gluten intolerance, always check the current packaging or supplier specification for the batch supplied and assess cross-contact in your own kitchen.

Which pack can I order from Green Acres?

Our listed article is the 2 kg catering case, item A251010. The small bag pictured in the catalogue is a brand reference and does not represent the supplied case size.

How should we portion and store them?

Set a weighed portion for each menu item and calculate your yield from that serving size. Follow the packaging’s storage instructions, keep opened chips protected from moisture and portion them close to service.
