  1. Chef, I had the fortunate experience of eating at Agave & Aguacate yesterday and I must say that I was absolutely blown away after I tried the ceviche. This was my first Mexican culinary experience and I'm looking forward to coming again with my friends. You and your team are creating fantastic food. Thank you.

  2. Hello,
    I saw your cooking demonstration at Harbourfront Centre today. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe. I will try out your Tinga de Pollo at home and will come by Agave this summer.

    You should blog more often. You're a great writer.
    Sincerely,
    Erin

I honestly cant stop thinking about it! I will definitely be back and will spread the word to everyone I know. Thank you very much.
