Celebrate Dia de La Candelaria at Wahaca with free Tamales

Tomorrow, February 2nd, the Dia de la Candelaria festival will be celebrated across Mexico. The tradition goes that whoever is lucky enough to find the small baby Jesus figurine in their Rosca De Reyes cake on the 6th of January should treat all of their friends and family to a meal of tamales on February 2nd. Anyone eagle eyed enough to have read about this year’s winter menu will have spotted that Tommi was hugely excited to be able to put two types of tamales on our menu for the first time. And very delicious they are too!

So, never one to let up the chance to have a bit of a party, tomorrow, we’ll be giving free tamales to anyone who comes in with a small baby Jesus figurine. OK, that might be a bit tricky. We’ll be giving free tamales to anyone who comes in with a picture of a baby Jesus figurine, and funnily enough, we’ve put one just here:

So, if you feel like getting into the Mexican party spirit, print out this picture, and head over to Wahaca any time tomorrow and get your tamales on!

Here’s some Ts and Cs:
One free tamale dish offered per printed picture, and no more than one per customer.
Offer only valid during restaurant opening times on Februrary 2nd 2011.
Anyone found not having fun may be evicted from the restaurant at any time, or asked to stand in the corner with a bag on their head, it’s a party after all.

After struggling to define the ways my nuclear family celebrated Christmas with a Latino flavor I decided that this year this blog entry would serve as an introduction to the way we would like to share a bi tri-cultural Christmas with Sabrina in the years to come..After much exploration and reflection we have decided to do the following with our small family of three .1 Prepare tamales on the 24th with family and friends to share on the 25th of December..My abuelita has made tamales for special events such as family members birthday to selling them in order to buy a new and much needed appliance in her home. The tradition of making has evolved over time as have the varieties of tamales. There are 500-1000 kinds of tamales all over Mexico and the tamal has several names depending on the country or the part of Mexico it is made.
