Nativo's Cinco de Mayo Fair
You'll find taco flights, free tacos for dogs and merch giveaways at this five-day Mexican fair.
Overview
Sydney's new hole-in-the-wall Mexican eatery Nativo is hosting a five-day fair for Cinco de Mayo. The tiny Pyrmont spot is led by Michelin-trained chef Manuel Diaz, who utilises native Australian ingredients to create his favourite Mexican street food dishes. The fair runs from Tuesday, May 2–Saturday, May 6, bringing a range of playful additions to the Nativo menu across the week.
The biggest drawcard is a special four-taco flight that's available for $30. Diners who order the Cinco de Mayo flight will be treated to duck carnitas, a grilled broccolini and crispy potato taco, a slow-cooked beef birria taco, and a cochinita pibil taco made with braised pork shoulder and citrus annatto marinade.
There's something for everyone at the fair, including the four-legged members of the family. The kitchen is whipping up dog-friendly tacos made with very lightly seasoned chicken on a 100-percent corn tortilla. If you head over on Thursday, May 4, your fluffiest pal will be treated to the snack for free, or else they're available for $3 on the other four days.
Feeling thirsty halfway through your taco flight? Throughout the festivities, Nativo is whipping up $1 servings of aguas frescas in the flavours of horchata, hibiscus mint and tamarind.
And, rounding out the activities, there will be a spin-the-wheel game where patrons can win Nativo hoodies and t-shirts designed by emerging artist Salvador Goa, $20 gift cards, and mini-hampers of Mexican staples like Jarritos, corn chips, salsa and tamarind lollies.
