Step into a warm, welcoming evening of Mexican heritage, bold flavours, and great conversation at La Taqueria’s Long Table—an intimate, chef-led long table dinner in Burnaby created just for this event. Set in the spirit of Burnaby’s dynamic food scene, this experience invites you to slow down, share the table, and discover the depth of traditional Mexican cuisine in an elevated yet relaxed setting.

At the heart of the evening is a curated four-course Mexican menu, guided by Chef Maria Ponce and Mario Guzman. Together, they’ll showcase authentic ingredients and regional techniques, bringing familiar favourites to life with thoughtful, modern touches. Each course is designed to highlight Mexico’s culinary diversity—rich, vibrant, and full of story—while still feeling approachable, social, and fun.

Agave Pairing & Guided Tasting
To complement the menu, agave expert David Bibbings (The Beverage Collective) will lead a guided agave tasting featuring three distinct Mexican spirits. Along the way, you’ll learn what makes each style unique—its origin, production, and character—through engaging storytelling and easy-to-follow tasting notes:

• Tequila: Siempre Plata – Bright citrus, floral notes, and white pepper
• Mezcal: Derrumbes Durango – Complex layers of summer fruits, minerality, and subtle smoke
• Raicilla: La Venenosa Sierra de Jalisco – Adventurous notes of fennel, fermented butter, and papaya

Together, the food and spirits create a complete Mexican tasting menu and agave pairing experience—equal parts delicious and memorable.
