About this Event
Years ago, Comal’s executive chef Matt Gandin coined the name Oaxanukkah as a mash-up of two words: Oaxaca (Comal’s biggest culinary inspiration) and Hanukkah. As the name suggests, the annual Oaxanukkah Dinners at Comal bring two disparate culinary styles — traditional Hanukkah dishes and Gandin’s signature Mexican style — together for a celebratory, family-style meal.
Our Oaxanukkah Dinners are back for another year! These multi-course family-style dinners will take place in Abajo, Comal’s intimate private dining room, on Sunday, December 29th and Monday, December 30th. While a menorah will be lit, this is first and foremost a fun cultural celebration.
