Events Description
Ficoa’s celebrated zero-waste culinary series continues with a deep dive into one of Mexico’s most iconic ingredients—masa. On Wednesday, February 12th, from 6:00 PM to 7:30 PM, join chef Gerry Quintero at the intimate Toronto dining destination for an exclusive event that showcases the versatility and history of masa, a key foundation in Mexican cuisine.
This evening will begin with a welcoming drink paired with a bite-sized empanada, setting the stage for an exploration of this traditional ingredient. From there, guests will enjoy two distinct taco offerings—mushroom and duck—each prepared with precision and flair, before finishing the meal with a decadent octopus tamal. At just $33.28 (tax inclusive), this culinary experience invites you to taste the heart of Mexican gastronomy while learning about its sustainable roots.
As part of the Ingredients by Ficoa series, this event will offer a unique opportunity to discover how masa can be transformed into a variety of dishes, from tortillas to tamales, all while adhering to Ficoa’s commitment to zero-waste practices. Chef Quintero will guide guests through the origins of masa, its cultural significance, and the many ways it can be used to elevate traditional dishes.
Ficoa continues to set the bar in Toronto’s fine dining scene, fusing Mexican culinary techniques with a sustainability-first approach. Whether you’re new to masa or a long-time fan, this event is not to be missed for anyone passionate about food, culture, and the environment.
