Bluebonnet BBQ x Mamasita Cinco de Mayo Banquet

Overview

If you fancy getting into the spirit of Cinco de Mayo with a Mexican-inspired feast and a couple of cheeky lunchtime cocktails, you're in luck. To mark Mexico's historic cultural day this Sunday, May 5, legendary Mexican spot Mamasita is joining forces with southern American-style smokehouse masters Bluebonnet BBQ, to deliver the ultimate Tex-Mex food fest.

For $55 per person, you'll get a five-course lunch that packs plenty of punch in the flavour department. We're talking cuttlefish enchiladas matched with poblano and squid ink; tostadas topped with brisket burnt ends, avocado and crispy shallots; and a smoked lamb dish starring tomatillo purée, barbecued red onion and ancho wild rice. And for dessert, you'll get a tres leches cake with mandarin candy and berries.

If you're thirsty, you can add on matched wines for an extra $40, or embrace the weekend with a $45 cocktail match lineup. Get excited for drinks such as chipotle and tamarind Sangritas and a pink lemonade blending mezcal, Ancho Verde (a spicy Mexican liqueur made from ancho and poblano chillis), hibiscus and lime.

There are two sittings on offer: noon and 2.30pm. To make a booking, head to the website.
