Humankind has seen many wonderful inventions, but none so great as the taco. This perfect food is portable, easily handled, comes in a variety of flavors, and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or even dessert!
Come join New Times as we celebrate the taco at Tacolandia. On Saturday, November 12, from 3 to 6 p.m., taco lovers will be able to eat their fill of tacos at Coconut Grove's Regatta Park.
The event will feature more than 20 of South Florida's best restaurants, each featuring a dish that showcases their idea of a taco. Restaurants signed up include La Catrina, Kombi Keg, Ecléctico Restaurant & Bar, Goya, and Yip, with more to be announced.
Event goers will have access to unlimited taco sampling, unlimited beer and cocktails, and entertainment. All Tacolandia guests must be 21 and over with a valid ID. The event will go on rain or shine.
A portion of the proceeds benefits the de Moya Foundation, a nonprofit organization founded in 2015 to make a difference in the lives of children and young adults with special needs.
