Cinco de Mayo, or the fifth of May, is a holiday that celebrates the date of the Mexican army’s May 5, 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War.
While there's a misconception that Cinco de Mayo is Mexico's Independence Day, that is not true. Today, the day is widely accepted as a moment to celebrate Mexican culture.
Join us in celebrating Cinco de Mayo. Enjoy a traditional Mexican dinner of tacos, refried beans and Spanish rice.
