Special Culinary Pop-Up Experience PEPINO

This summer, Amparo owner and chef Christian Irabién is teaming up with Cotton & Reed for Pepino, a new pop-up experience showcasing ceviche-centered fare. Pepino will offer guests a preview of Irabién’s forthcoming Amparo, slated to open this fall. The limited-run pop-up menu will feature half a dozen exclusive dishes ranging in price from $7 to $16. Standout offerings include the “Pepino, Sal y Mar,” a Hawaiian sunfish dish with aguachile, cucumber, mint, serrano, cilantro and tostadas, and the “Ceviche De Camaron,” made with shrimp, citrus, salsa Mexicana, radishes, tostada atop a saltine cracker. The special menu will also include a handcrafted Cotton & Reed slushie, the “Prickled Pink,” consisting of prickly pear, Cotton & Reed's White Rum and Ilegal Mezcal and lime, for $12. Pepino will be open on Thursdays and Fridays from 4:00 to 10:00 p.m., and Saturdays and Sundays from 12:00 to 8:00 p.m. Photo credit: Vina Sananikone
