When we think of Mexican food, we think of fun and the fun is in sharing and creating a bit of a mess!

Our Chile con Queso nachos aren't traditionally Mexican but more of an Americanised Mexican dish. The nachos aren't baked but drizzled with chile con queso (a molten cheese sauce).

This is one of our signature dishes

Jenna here, co-owner of Mission District. Here to tell you about my favourite margarita, the Mezcal Tamarindo.

I would always prefer to drink a mezcal marg over a regular marg. I just love the smokiness that mezcal brings. And tamarind, is a flavour I love, but one that I find really hard to describe. It's a tropical fruit that has both a sweet and sour flavour, but also kinda earthy and tangy. In Mexico you can order a tamarind agua fresca by the litre! I love it.

So next time you go to order a classic margarita, maybe be adventurous and try something different that we love!
