Cinco De Mayo Is Almost Here And These Five Places In Dubai Are Going ALL Out

Avatar

Cinco is five and Mayo is May and those two put together represent the 5th of May aka Cinco de Mayo. 

For anyone who’s new to the concept, this annual one-day Mexican celebration falls on the May 5 and has recently become a shared celebration for Mexicans and non-Mexicans alike. 

Dating back to 1862, Cinco de Mayo was originally practiced to celebrate the Mexican army’s victory over the French Empire during the Battle of Puebla. 

But is now more of a reason for people to get together, have a good time and appreciate all things Mexican. 

And now these five places want you to celebrate the occasion and indulge in the Mexican culture with amazing offers

It’s a celebration like no other – filled with colours, music, delicious food and an enchanting atmosphere!

1. All day AED15 burritos at Taqado 

Yuupp, you read that right! Taqado wants you to celebrate Cinco de Mayo with none other than their signature Mexican kitchen burritos. 

So grab no more than AED15 and all you’ll have to do is visit any of their restaurants, snap a picture of the Mexican flag, post it on Instagram while tagging the resto and you’ll get your burrito!! 

Move quickly because this is only happening on May 5 so find the nearest Taqado restaurant here.

2. Mexican brunch at Loca

Since Cinco de Mayo happens to fall on a Saturday this year and what better way to wave goodbye to the weekend than with a brunch bang! 

Your favourite Mexican restaurant is bringing a cool new concept to this year’s Mexican celebration – a Mexican Loteria! 

So not only will you munch on Mexican delights for just AED285, but you’ll also be able to enter a super fun game that’s similar to bingo! 

And if that’s not enough, play your best and you might even win special prizes from 12–5pm! 

You can visit any of the Loca outlets in Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
