George Bernard Shaw once said “there is no sincerer love than the love of food."

Philadelphia has become a city of great culinary diversity offering exotic options to delight its growing community of foodies.

With diverse flavors, smells and textures, Mexican food is a favorite and a must for wide range of palates.

Its richness was recognized in 2010, when Mexican cuisine was declared an Intangible Cultural Heritage by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).

From May 1 to May 5, during Mexican Week, foodies will be able to satisfy their zest and appetite with the best Philly has to offer.
