The tropical garden oasis was dimly lit; creating a sultry ambiance while guests sipped Jungle Fever mezcal cocktails and nibbled on passed light bites by Chef Mike Bagale.

Guests were the first to try Bagale’s Wild Shrimp Ceviche with huitlacoche and leche de tigre followed by Short Rib Pibil Tacos, served on homemade tortillas with banana habanero sauce.
