Say "Hola!" to Maria Bonita!

Say "Hola!" to Maria Bonita, a new pop-up series @mifreshforage by Chef Eduardo Rubio, dedicated to bringing the true essence of authentic Mexican cuisine to our region.

Maria Bonita is more than just a culinary adventure; it's a love letter to Eddie's home, where he grew up, and the vibrant culture of Mexico. It's a testament to his passion for food, his insatiable appetite for travel paired with his skillful execution and beautiful presentation.

THE MENU

Maria Bonita will proudly utilize scratch-made ingredients, leaving no room for shortcuts in flavor. Eddie will be collaborating directly with trusted local suppliers, prioritizing the use of local ingredients. Any ingredients that cannot be sourced locally will be imported from reputable suppliers in Mexico.Maria Bonita's mission is to challenge your comfort zone and redefine your perception of "Mexican food." Prepare to broaden your horizons, treat your taste buds, and experience something truly unique!
