Overview

Every Friday lunchtime, CBD bar Since I Left You will transform into a Mexico City-inspired taqueria, with refreshing cocktails, $5 tacos and spicy house-made salsas.

From 12pm each week, the bar will host the Tuckshop Taqueria: a celebration of making it to Friday — and an affordable alternative to a soggy sanga or exxy pub lunch. The weekly pop-up will be slinging house-made tortillas with your choice of three different toppings: tinga de pollo (sweet and spicy pulled chicken), al pastor (marinated and grilled pork) and pumpkin and sweet potato jerky.

With these tasty (gluten-free) tortillas, you'll get three salsas, which, according to Owner Nick White, range from mild to "face melting". The mild is avocado and coriander with just a touch of green chilli, the medium is charred jalapeño and tomatillo salsa, and the fiery number is pasilla (dried chilaca chilli) and garlic.

To help soothe the burn, there'll be hibiscus iced teas for $6 — the "most refreshing drink on earth", according to White — and, for those ready to start celebrating the weekend already, $12 margaritas and $8 Corona beers.

For the moment, the taqueria will be walk-in only and just on Fridays, but if Sydney continues to ease out of COVID-19 restrictions, White hopes to expand it to more days.
