TAZON THURSDAYS! This fall, we're excited to announce that we’re not only bringing back everyone's favorite pozole night, but this time we’ll be popping up weekly at Tournant (almost) every Thursday through the end of the year!

This traditional Mexican soup is hearty and nourishing, brimming with toothsome hominy and tender stewed meat or seasonal vegetables and is served with fresh garnishes such as cabbage, chopped onion, radish and lime that you can add to taste for your perfect bowl. 

In many regions of Mexico, pozole is served only on Thursdays and is a wonderful excuse to gather friends and family around the table. We're continuing this tradition at Tournant with Tazon (which means “bowl” in Spanish) every Thursday--though be sure to check the calendar as we may be booked for a private party.

Steamy bowls start at $12 and you can choose from pork rojo, chicken verde or verduras (vegan), plus traditional and not so traditional add-ins. What’s more, our friend Shauna Galante of Secret Language will be creating rotating ceviche selections in her signature fresh and vibrant style and chocolate-whisperer Joe Rodriguez will make his obscenely delicious chocolate flan with mezcal caramel for a sweet ending.

No reservations necessary—just drop by for restaurant-style seating, order a cold cerveza, margarita or paloma, then close your eyes and imagine you're in sunny Mexico.
