“I can remember running around my grandparents’ house in Chixchulub with all my cousins,” said Sueño Executive Chef Jorge Guzman. “All of the sudden a huge platter of taquitos de cochinita would arrive out of the kitchen and we all stop what we’re doing to grab handfuls of tacos. I remember biting into them and watching the golden, orange grease dripping down my elbows. It’s one of the fondest memories I have.”

The three-course dinner includes:

- Local mixed greens salad with roasted chile vinaigrette

- Pork cochinita dinner with black beans, rice, cebollas encurtidas, tortillas, and salsa xni-pek

- House made tres leches cake with dulce de leche topping

Chris O’Hearn from Parcel Wine out of Cincinnati will provide wine pairings for this dinner.

The three-course cochinita dinner is $58 per person. The optional wine pairing is $23.
