Ancho kūmara, broccoli, quinoa, pepitas, whipped feta, beetroot, citrus onions, and a hibiscus & lime dressing tying it all together. The Aztec Salad walked in as a side dish and left as a personality. 💁♀️

Al pastor glaze, chicharrón crunch, pineapple salsa, and a swipe of al pastor crema doing the absolute most. Our Pork Belly Bites have started at least three fights over the last bite on the plate. Totally worth it.

Bright fish, smoky al pastor salsa, sweet-spicy red onion chilli jam, a splash of hibiscus & lime agua, pepita pesto, seasonal fruit, chilli heat, and corn shards for crunch. Our ceviche is doing the absolute most, and we love her for it. 🌺🐟

If you've got a sweet tooth, you absolutely cannot go past these Empanada Brownies. Just picture a brownie, wrapped in sweet pastry, coated with cinnamon sugar, injected with a healthy dose of melted chocolate and served with a scoop of ice cream. Yes, it's decadent. Yes, you *need* this in your life.

And that was the correct order 🔥 Corn masa cups topped with tomato salsa, halloumi, red pepper crema, queso, spring onions. So morish we begged the chef to make it come in twos (you're welcome).
