Spirit of Cinco de Mayo Luncheon


Patricio Sandoval Mercadito, Mercadito Grove, and Mercadito Cantina/ NYC

Cinco de Mayo commemorates the 1862 defeat of the French Army in Mexico, but most of us know it as the biggest party on the Mexican calendar. And who better to lead this year’s festivities than chef Patricio Sandoval, whose coastal Mexican fare and legendary margaritas are themselves cause for celebration.
