Melbourne's Chingon Cantina y Taqueria Is Coming to Brisbane
Nestled in one of the city's laneways.
These days, barely a week passes by without a new Mexican eatery joining Brisbane's vibrant, multicultural restaurant scene. But don't dismiss the city's next addition as 'just another taco joint'. If you've been to Chingon Cantina y Taqueria in Melbourne, you'll know what we're talking about.
From late July, Chingon will bring its street food focus to Brisbane's Eagle Lane, including five different types of soft tortilla tacos, three kinds of salsa and fire-roasted corn on the cob. If you're already salivating at that lineup, you'll pleased to know that everything will be available for both lunch and dinner six days a week. Drinks-wise, expect plenty of citrus-focused cocktails to wash it all down with — and, yes, plenty of tequila as well.
No, it's not a coincidence that the cantina will be nestling in next door to US-themed dive bar Brooklyn Standard. Sharing the same owners (Adam Barton and Emmanuel Sakellarakis), it's actually the next step in their plan to turn the laneway into an American-focused food and drink haven. A Cuban-oriented joint is also in the works further down the track.
