humility is over-rated. this is the salad of the year. the medal hasn’t arrived just yet. trust off… little gem wedges, passion fruit, miso, ‘cashew crunch,’ nori, shiso, other cool things … oh, and pick it up with your fingers. show some respect to evolution.

The Traif & xixa teams understand how difficult this period has been for everyone- some of course more so than others. But we miss you, and we hope you miss us to; not like when happy Gilmore is singing into the apartment intercom “I want to kiss you all over, and over and again.” But, more like in jerry McGuire when he realizes that Renee zelweiger’s character completes him. Well, you complete us. We’re just not whole without you in our lives. And hopefully, a little food & drink can bring us back together. So, beginning tomorrow, Traif and xixa will start delivery Wednesday-Sunday, 3pm-9pm featuring classics & all-inclusive dishes centered around ‘la familia’ section. We know it’s not a time for celebration or self-indulgence, but we hope this is good news for some of you. -heather and jason
