Happy Birthday Loco!
3 years ago this weekend, Loco Taqueria and Oyster Bar made Southie a little spicier! Stop by over the weekend and help them celebrate! On Saturday, live entertainment from musician Cilla Bonnie and her band (who also happens to be a former employee) will be playing soulful, funky vibes from noon-4PM. Regular brunch and dinner menus will be served tomorrow. Executive Chef Matt Drummond is doing a special brunch taco with BBQ brisket, apple, red onion and guac. Bar Manager Kaitlyn Fischer is doing a special birthday margarita as well.
To thank their followers, Loco (@locosouthboston) has been doing an Instagram giveaway and partnering with their friends from Forteleza (@drinkforteleza) to send two people on a four day trip to Jalisco, Mexico. The trip includes 2 round trip tickets, accommodations, 4 tequila distillery visits & tastings, ground transportation and a crazy cave fiesta at the Forteleza distillery. The winner will be announced on Saturday (1/20). There are two ways to enter to win:
1. Followers can like the photo on @locosouthbos Instagram page – https://www.instagram.com/p/BdieTMXD8sR/?taken-by=locosouthbos – and tag 5+ people and have them follow both @locosouthbos and @drinkfortleza
2. Tag @locosouthbos in their best loco photo and hashtag #fortelezagoesloco & #drinkforteleza
Good luck!
