Cocktails & Connections: Recipe for Success - Networking Event

An immersive evening where business, culture, and flavor come together through connection and experience.

✨ About the Event

Recipe for Success is a special interactive edition of Cocktails & Connections, hosted at The Palomino Event Center in the heart of Downtown Fresno.

Led by Kahlo Salsas y Más, owner Alonzo invites guests into a hands-on culinary experience that tells the story of building a business through food. Each dish represents a core pillar of entrepreneurship — from patience and adaptability to quality, consistency, and exceptional customer experience.

This is more than a networking mixer — it’s a shared experience designed to spark meaningful conversation, creativity, and connection.
