Celebrate Cinco de Mayo in the Triangle
Find out about Cinco de Mayo specials at your favorite restaurant.
Posted — UpdatedIn Mexico, Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of an unlikely battle that was won over the French. It’s interesting to note that although the day is celebrated, it is not a federal holiday in Mexico.
In the United States, Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of Mexican culture!
Here are my favorite places to celebrate Cinco de Mayo in the Triangle:
- $5 Boilermakers (Jimador Reposado & Modelo sidecar)
- $5 Infused Mezcales (strawberry, chili)
- $5 *Award-winning 'Perro Caliente' (Colombian-style Hot Dog)
