"FREXICAN"
We are celebrating the infamous holiday known in Mexico as "The battle of Puebla" , in the United States we call it "Cinco de Mayo" in a major culinary way. We have planned a Mexican-French five course meal to represent the true meaning behind this holiday. The Mexican - French idea was spawn from the original date of May 5, 1862 when the Mexican army in the state of Puebla, Mexico defeated the French army who was considered the "World's most superior military" at that time. After revisiting that point in history, we decided the menu should have a unique play on this event and create a meal that would have been had if things would have turned out in a more peaceful scenario. That's right, we are looking to rewrite history via food! What if the French and Mexican armies would have put down their guns, and picked up cooking pans, forks and knives, and became amigos at a communal table? That is the thinking behind the menu items we are preparing for this meal, and we are completely stoked about the numerous fantastic dishes that are going to come out of this partnership. This meal is sure to make your palate scream "je t'aime mucho!".
