It’s never easy, the first full week after carnaval. But to get you through the inevitable hanger of longer work hours, we have a full agenda of great food events worth checking out.

Want to jumpstart your week with a whole lotta flavor?

Masa Invades Sede
Between the dim lighting, smokey whiskey cocktails, and rap caviar-esque playlist, the last time we went to Sede we really got down with our bad selves. You know what else is bad, in that good way? Fried potato and tongue tacos. No, no wait, make that over baked bacon and mole tacos. And don’t forget about the walnut ice cream churros. That’s right, Masa’s invading Sede this week. Don’t miss it.
