OK, so it’s fair to say that Mexico isn’t exactly having the best of luck right now. Over 700 cases of Swine Flu have been confirmed so far, and whilst the rate of newly discovered cases is slowing, the consequent drop in tourism is having a devastating effect on the countries economy.
However, it’s not all doom & gloom. In Mexico, the 5th of May, or Cinco De Mayo is a highly celebrated date in the calendar, commemorating the Mexican army’s defeat of the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862
despite being hugely outnumbered, under the leadership of their beloved president Benito Juarez.
So while it may not be the best time to visit Mexico to join in the celebrations… it is definitely a fabulous time to get yourselves down to Benito’s Hat in Goodge Street this week. Included in both Time Out and The Independants Top 50 Cheap Eats, and rated 4* by the Metro’s hugely respected Marina O’Loughlin, Benito’s Hat serves delicious burritos, tacos, salads and soups assembled in front of diners from the freshest and tastiest ingredients available. The meals
are tasty, healthy and exceedingly affordable at £4 to £6 (BARGAIN!). They are also relaunching their bar to coincide with the Cinco De Mayo celebrations – and are offering a fabulous 2 for 1 deal on their new summery cocktails today, tomorrow and Thursday.
Great Mexican food and a deal on cocktails…How could you NOT want to get involved??
