On Wednesday, March 31 Dallas was introduced to a new culinary event,
“Savor Mexico”.  Desperados Mexican Restaurant, known by many as a Dallas landmark,  partnered with el Consul dado de Mexico, the Universidad del Valle de Mexico in San Luis Portosi and the Texas Chefs Association to present the next course in Mexican food. Desperados has a longstanding tradition of introducing new and delectable tastes from Mexico to its legions of patrons and was proud to be a part of this cultural event. Over fifteen of the top senior students from the universidad participated in a culinary competition with dishes indigenous to their San Luis Portosi and Hausteca region. The professors, other executive chefs and celebrity judges came together to choose the top three. Over 2o0 invited guests experienced the many unique creations at the Milestone Culinary Arts Center in Dallas. In addition, a portion of the ticket sales and other donations totaled over $5,000  which went to the GAABA Scholarship Fund
