Bangkok is taking its diplomatic relations with Mexico to the next level in November with Thailand’s first-ever Taco Festival. In partnership with the Embassy of Mexico, W Hotel, The Westin and Corona (the beers, that is), this 15-day food event will celebrate the vibrancy of Mexican culture, namely through flavours and traditions.
