It’s that glorious time of year where we will start seeing festivals pop up around the city every weekend. In just a few short weeks we will be graced with a delicious taco festival that you just can’t miss. Let’s check it out.
Top Taco returns for its third year next month, and you’re not going to want to miss it. This might just be the most delicious festival in New Orleans.
General Admission is $75 and includes unlimited tacos and cocktails, tequila tastings, and four voting chips. There will be live music, lounge areas, and all the tacos and tequila you can eat.
Over 50 different chefs and mixologists will be competing for bragging rights and top honors. You’ll have the opportunity to vote for your favorites in four categories: Top Creative Taco, Top Traditional Taco, Top Margarita, and Top Creative Cocktail.
Be sure to come hungry (and thirsty) because you’ll be feasting on some incredibly creative tacos you just won’t find anywhere else. Cowbell, Central City BBQ, Lucy’s Retired Surfer’s Bar, Johnny Sanchez, and Tchoup Yard are just a few of the restaurants competing this year.
