La Fiesta Tallahassee

Wishing a very happy birthday to the boss himself! Here we see Pedro posing with his wife Jana (the other boss), about to enjoy a glass or two of birthday wine.

They are both doing great. Pedro is staying busy with a never ending list of things to do around the house. He also spends lots of time at the gym, and visiting with his buddies here and there across town. Jana is also staying busy, she’s now a realtor serving Tallahassee and surrounding areas.

If you see Pedro out anytime in the next week, make sure to wish him a happy birthday! And if you’re looking to buy/sell, reach out to Jana Hernandez (of Armor realty), she’s great!

(As for me, it’s my birthday in a few weeks, and I’ll give you an update then)

Love and miss you all. Hope everyone is happy and healthy!

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone out there!

Today is a bitter sweet day for me. On one hand, it’s nice to not work a Valentine’s Day dinner shift (first time in 10+ years). But on the other hand, I truly miss seeing the happy couples.

For the last decade at Fiesta we were absolutely PACKED on Valentine’s Day. Initially, I was surprised because that wasn’t always the case. But when I started talking to our customers I started to understand why. There were SO MANY stories about first dates being here. And stories like “this is where I found out I was going to be a father”, or “we had our wedding rehearsal here”. All of those people came back year after year, to re-live those beautiful moments.

On our last Valentine’s Day we had decades worth of people coming back to re-live those moments. The love that you all shared with us in that building was a beautiful thing. Thank you so much for those memories. Have a great night!

I love this picture. This was taken about 2 years ago, back when the lemon tree was healthy and alive.

It was a typical night. The parking lot had cars as far as they eye could see, the patio was full of happy people (and happier dogs), incredible food was being served, and everyone felt like family.

Thinking about nights like this make me feel whole again. I miss everyone terribly and I’m sorry that I’ve been radio silent. I thought it would be easier to say goodbye if I didn’t interact on social media, but I really want to update you on how your Fiesta family is doing. In the next few weeks I’m going to give you some fun updates about you’re favorite people from Fiesta and what they’re up to now.

I hope everyone is having a great start to 2023, talk to you soon!

(And don’t think I’ve forgotten about that special announcement I promised you!)

Hola!

Hope everyone is staying safe and is enjoying this fall weather! I have an exciting announcement coming SOON about your favorite salsa and jalapeño ranch dip. Stay tuned amigos!

(Carne asada for attention, because WOW that looks good).
