Turn up the heat this winter with a vibrant, flavor-packed culinary experience inspired by the bold, colorful spirit of Mexican cuisine. Our Tacos, Tequila & Tastebuds evening brings together zesty tacos, fresh seasonal ingredients, rich roasted flavors, cocktails, wines and a handcrafted cocktail designed to brighten the cold days of February with warmth, spice, and fun.
During this chef-led culinary demonstration, you’ll watch each dish come to life as we share techniques, textures, and the secrets behind building authentic Mexican-inspired flavors. We’ll also highlight how our hand-crafted olive oils, balsamics, and spices are made and why exceptional ingredients are the key to truly unforgettable tacos and cocktails.
🍷 Raise your glass, share the laughter because the best way to celebrate is the Grovestone way: with great food, great wine, and even greater company.
