If you’ve been following Tasting Victoria for a while, you may already know that I, Amelia, founder of Tasting Victoria, am from Mexico. When I first arrived in Victoria in 2009 it was hard to find good and authentic Mexican food, but luckily, things have changed. Now there are a variety of options to choose from, whether you are looking for carne asada—which originated in northern Mexico—nixtamal tortillas—mostly made in the center of Mexico—or even Mexican brunch.

Tacofino Victoria said goodbye to their Fort Street location. They are now open at their new and bigger space.

Cinco de Mayo Celebrations are just around the corner!
Since part of the Tasting Victoria team is originally from Mexico, we couldn’t help but share with you some local options, a guacamole recipe and a mexican playlist to celebrate Cinco de Mayo at home!
