Happy Cinco de Mayo

admittedly, packaging was the deciding factor in the purchase

In San Diego, Cinco de Mayo is as big as St. Patrick’s day here in New York.  Like St. Patty’s means going out and crushing some Guinness, Cinco de Mayo, is a good excuse to drink too much Tequila

Here at the Cookroom we’re celebrating this day of Mexican heritage with Americanized Latin food:

  • Huevos Rancheros
  • Chorizo & Cheddar Scrambler
  • Breakfast Burrito
  • Turkey Tacos

Come give your palette a nice change up.

Wash it all down with a glass of Lauren’s house made horchata – a rice drink very popular in Mexico and ubiquitous at burrito shops in San Diego. However, most of those come from a mix and are dispensed from those large plastic things you’d see holding Lemonade here on Long Island.  Come try this one made from scratch.
