Authentic tacos, killer cocktails and a special atmosphere | GRINGO<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

Don’t expect your average taco spot: this is all about homemade tortillas, fresh salsas and a menu inspired by the streets of Mexico. GRINGO offers a place where food, fun and community come together.<\/p>\n

GRINGO<\/a> is not just a restaurant – it is a community. With The Taco Lover Club, founders Cedric and Aldwin are creating a place where taco fans find each other. From vibrant events and DJ nights to limited-edition merch, GRINGO is about more than just food. For true taco fans, GRINGO held an exclusive pre-opening sale, giving early adopters the chance to get their hands on one of the coveted O.G. Taco Lover Cards. This card offers 7% off forever, priority at events and exclusive access to merch drops. The proud owners of this card now have their ticket to the GRINGO vibes from day one.\u00a0Those who missed out on a ticket will not have to miss out on GRINGO’s extras. Limited-edition merchandise and events will follow, giving everyone the chance to be part of The Taco Lover Club.<\/p>\n

To get GRINGO right down to the last detail, Cedric and Aldwin headed to CDMX, where they collaborated with local chef To\u00f1o, who will also be present during the upcoming events. Think authentic recipes with a quirky twist, prepared with top ingredients and the right techniques. From the perfect al pastor to homemade salsas.<\/p>\n

For those looking for something extra: GRINGO is collaborating with STELLA, Brussels’ coolest coffee bar, serving their signature cinnamon bun alongside an exclusive GRINGO creation: Oatly soft serve with hot chilli pepper. The perfect sweet-spicy finish after a taco party.<\/p>\n

KAGE | A new Belgian matcha brand<\/strong><\/a><\/h3>\n

KAGE<\/a> combines tradition and innovation with an exclusive selection of high-quality matcha and powder tea in four varieties. KAGE is now available through their webshop and has also opened a flagship store\/specialty tea bar on the Antoine Dansaertstraat 19 in Brussel. KAGE is proud to introduce its product line, including Ceremonial Matcha, RYOKU organic matcha, ROKU organic hojicha (this is roasted Japanese green tea with a mild, warm aroma). and KOME organic genmaicha (this is a blend of green tea and roasted rice, with a nutty flavour). These powdered teas are now being sold through a brand new webshop. The brand combines age-old traditions, such as the \u2018Kage\u2019 method.<\/p>\n

The term \u2018Kage\u2019 (\u5f71), pronounced \u2018Kah Geh\u2019 in Japanese, means \u2018shadow\u2019. It is inspired by the traditional shading method \u2018Ooika\u2019, which plays a crucial role in the production of Japanese high-quality teas such as Matcha and Gyokuro, often called the \u2018king of tea\u2019. This process enhances the tea’s flavour, aroma and nutritional value.<\/p>\n

KAGE matcha is beautifully packaged, an ideal gift for the Matcha lover.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
