1 DAY ONLY! Victoria Day — MON May 24 — 11am – 4pm
Birria is the fast-rising star of the taco world here in North America, but it’s been a long time favourite in Mexico. Due to the long, slow cooking it is traditionally reserved for special occasions, but is rapidly becoming a brunch staple all over the country.
Birria de res is slow-cooked beef with chilis, tomato, garlic, onion, and a mix of spices unique to whoever is making it. It’s served with a side of consommé, a rich broth made from the braising liquid. The tender pulled beef is stuffed into fresh tortillas, griddled and then dunked in a bowl of the consommé when eating – messy & delicious! Ours is served with house salsa for those who like a little extra spice, and a few classic garnishes.

Don Chingon is new Mexican brunch residency at The Depanneur; two veteran professional chefs bring you the magic trinity of Mexican comfort food — Tacos, Tortas, & Tamales — with a TO brunch twist. Aaron Okada, a talented local chef with nearly 15 years in some of Toronto’s top kitchens, has joined forces with Oskar Diaz from Tampico, Mexico (where he ran several restaurants, and his mom ran a tamale business with over 35 flavours of tamales!) to create Don Chingon, an exciting new Mexican weekend brunch concept on Saturdays & Sundays at The Depanneur. A trio of pre-orderable Brunch Boxes for 2 or 4 people complements a walk-up menu of Tacos, Tortas, and Tamales, along with a selection of authentic Mexican snacks, drinks, and their signature Huasteca Hot Sauce.
