MORE ABOUT THE FOOD

Chef Cisco is a taco aficionado. Raised in Chula Vista California, he’s the first of his family born outside Mexico but he keeps his family traditions alive through his passion for Mexican food and Mexican culture. In fact, many of the recipes on the day will be his late grandmother’s. And if that’s not cool enough, his father was part of the first group to ever celebrate Cinco de Mayo in the US in the 1960’s (before it became a drinking holiday). He only cooks from the heart and only uses fresh ingredients including hand-made nixtamal corn tortillas, all salsas, guacs, etc. Thanks in advance Cisco…you’re awesome and once again, you’ve already done your family proud.

Damas y caballeros,

~ We must stand with our Mexican neighbours and pay tribute not only to the 159th anniversary of the heroic Battle of Puebla, but to the nation that has blessed us with tequila, tacos and vague-but-blissful memories of our Spring Breaks. ~

~ While miliones de gringos all across North America will celebrate of our proclaimed Mexican nacional holiday as an excuse to tip back a few margaritas or even partake in tequila body shots, many of us here in Sydney will be homesick for some authentic, Mexican food & some comradery. ~

~ So we will bring you a ROOFTOP FEAST y FIESTA all in one. A celebracion of amazing food together with fun & games & drinks & dancing & more ~
