Beijing is heating in more ways than one: not only have we nearly sold out of vendor space for this year’s Hot & Spicy Festival over Dragonboat Festival weekend (Jun 25-27), but we’ve settled on a suitably fiery theme! And what could be more fitting than the land of everything that is delicioso and picante – México!
A country famous for its incredible food culture and vibrant street life, Mexico makes for the ideal backdrop for a three-day food festival. It also gives us every excuse to fill the Galaxy Soho to the rafters with tacos, nachos, and an endless supply of tequila. Of course, there’ll be other food on offer too, including plenty of local favorites and 20 vendors who stand to blow Beijing’s collective lid off in what will be their inaugural appearance at Hot & Spicy Festival along with entertainment and crafts for the whole family. Take a look at the growing list of spicy vendors below:advertisement
