La Comida at Tequila and Mezcal Fest
You arrive at Tequila and Mezcal Fest, and of course, the first thing you hunt out is the tequila and mezcal. But what about la comida? The food! This year looks to be another big year for the food on offer. And we think you will definitely enjoy pairing up the various tequilas and mezcals with these great flavours.
We know that Barrio Bars will be serving up cocktails galore from the main bar at Tequila and Mezcal Fest. But you can also expect some food. Barrio Bars will be cooking up their signature dish, tacos al pastor. Tacos al pastor is a pork taco made in a traditional way (like you would find in Mexico City). This is Ferdie Ahmed’s (the founder of Barrio Bars) favourite dish from their menu, which they will be proud to serve you.
Café Pacifico has a proud tradition – it was one of the first restaurants to bring authentic Mexican food to London. And you can expect the tradition to continue with their great menu offerings this year. Head up to the Café Pacifico counter and watch them grill your tacos right in front of you. You will find a street taco list including beef steak, chicken tinga, and a vegetarian green rajas option.
Temper is a newcomer to Tequila and Mezcal Fest. Temper first opened in Soho in flames! That’s because the whole restaurant revolves around their open wood and charcoal fire pit which is used to grill their dishes. It is a concept that has proven to be a hit in London, and is matched with a great mezcal selection. Temper will be serving up a unique taco. Their menu will feature a smoked and pulled goat taco, garnished with coriander, lime, garlic salsa and chipotle sour cream.
Perhaps you want to learn a little more about Mexican cuisine. This year you’ll be able to do just that, as we will be hosting some great seminars featuring how to make the perfect guacamole and the secrets behind Mexican ceviche. These seminars will be presented by Adriana Cavita, who was in the first season of Top Chef Mexico, and now resides as the Head Chef at Peyotito Notting Hill. You will not want to miss these seminars featuring some great comida of Mexico.
But what if you want to try some of these culinary experiences at home? Tequila and Mezcal Fest is a great place to start. Come and visit the Mexgrocer stand and you can pick up many different Mexican food items from tortillas, hot suaces, beans, jamaica to make fresh juice, horchata and even Jarritos, a widely popular Mexican soda. We invite you to come and share some great Mexican recipes with Mexgrocer while at Tequila and Mezcal Fest.
So you see, Tequila and Mezcal Fest is not just all about the tequila and mezcal. It is also about la comida! We invite you to join us in less than a month, for a great time, to share some great food, tequila and mezcal.
