Chef Edgar Rico and Sara Mardanbigi share their culture with others every day at Nixta through their food, and now they’re bringing it to Copia for a VIP dinner in the garden with live Latin music by Latin Grammy nominee Gabriel Navia. Join us for an adventure through the cuisine and culture of the southwest. We’re throwing a masa party and you’re invited! Price: $95

Edgar Rico, CIA ’11 is a 2022 James Beard Award winner for Best Emerging Chef and owner/chef at Nixta Taqueria in Austin, TX and Sara Mardanbigi is Nixta Taqueria co-owner and operations manager. Nixta is not a typical taquería. It treads a line between the super-traditional (they make their own masa and tortillas using heirloom corn from Mexico) and the unconventional (you don’t see many taquerias where duck confit stands in for carnitas).
