5 de Gallo

What's the best way to spend 5 de Mayo in NYC? Celebrating it with the girls from MEX and the CITY of course. Last night as you turned onto Lafayatte and Walker you saw a little kiosk on the side walk selling tamales, taquitos and whatever else you heart desired. It was part of the festivities that included dancing and a live band at Santos in Tribeca as part of 5 de Gallo. What a great way to get the word out about their site and just have a great time. Their goal as stated on the website:

Mex and the City is a cultural website and blog created to promote the free thinking, enterprising, and artistic efforts of young creatives in New York City. It is a blog that speaks about the increasing Mexican culture in the fast-paced New York landscape in a fun and personal tone.

The founders from L-R Iris Avelar, Marina Garcia-Vasquez, Ruby Vizcarra
