Join us on a captivating journey through the fascinating history of the renowned Torta Ahogada sandwich, guided by Monica, an expert in PR and marketing from Tortas Chago. This iconic dish originated in Guadalajara, Mexico in the mid-1930s and has since become a cherished symbol of Mexican culinary heritage. In 1985, Tortas Chago introduced their unique twist to the sandwich with the introduction of the birote salado, a hard and salty bolillo roll. The Torta Ahogada is a tantalizing fusion of flavors that will transport you to the vibrant streets of Guadalajara, tantalizing your taste buds with every bite.

During this unforgettable culinary and cultural experience, Monica will share her expertise in securing major food placements in the US, including prestigious venues like the Academy Museum and Major League Soccer advertisement billboards. She will provide invaluable insights on how to give your brand the extra exposure it needs to soar to new heights.
