Everything is better in miniature, right?

How about if it is mini and free? It’s got to be too good to be true! Well, at the Southbank this Friday (19th August) and Saturday (20th August), Old El Paso will be popping up with a Mexican, cantina-style restaurant, serving mini versions of their stand-and-stuff tacos. Operated on a first-come, first-served basis, eager taco tasters will be given a 20-minute slot between 11:30am-7pm on Friday and 11:30am-5pm on Saturday to test out the tiny tacos.
Greeted by a mini Danny Trejo (Dinky Trejo), the maître‘d and a mariachi band, what better place to experience a taste of Mexico than the sunny Southbank, overlooking the River Thames. However, as it obviously organised first-come, first-served, it’s important to get there early! Not living in London? Don’t worry, the Southbank is just one of the destinations on the Old El Paso Taco Tour, so there are lots of opportunities to catch up with it around the UK.
We have no idea what flavour combinations are likely to be offered at the pop-up, however, judging by the #minimexican tag on twitter, it seems that both sweet and savoury varieties could be on the menu.
