MESSINA EATS: FRANKIE’S TORTAS & TACOS

Friday 14th & Saturday 15th November in the Messinaville car park. 

RSVP HERE

We’re turning our Marrickville carpark into a Mexican street food fiesta, and no sorry, you’re not invited to have just one taco. You’re having three. Minimum. It's the law.

This round of Messina Eats is a collab with our really cool mates at Frankie’s Tortas & Tacos, the Fitzroy legends behind some of the best carnitas we've had (obviously consumed for research purposes only)

Pork shoulder slow cooked with cinnamon, orange and garlic, topped with both a spicy
red and tangy green salsa
