Failed attempt.

This is a dish I submitted to a competition.

It didn't get selected 😕

An upgrade of our Bone Marrow.

Topped with reversed braised birria with a mustard and habanero emulsion. Mignonette style red onion and a color palette inspired by Dia de Mu***os colors.

I feel it deserves a new lease of life on our menu.

Coming Soon.
