New year, clean slate… same obsession with great tacos.
January’s Taco of the Month at Eastbound Cantina is all about fresh flavours, balance, and starting the year strong without sacrificing comfort. Say hello to New Year, New Pollo — a taco built to wake up your taste buds and pair beautifully with a cold beer.
Meet the Taco: New Year, New Pollo
This month’s taco is layered, bright, and deeply satisfying:
-
Chicken asada – juicy, flavour-packed, and grilled just right
-
Napa & fennel slaw – crisp, fresh crunch with a hint of sweetness
-
Cilantro cream – cool, smooth, and herb-forward
-
Ancho-charred citrus – smoky, tangy, and a little unexpected
-
Pickled onions – sharp, punchy, and perfectly balanced
Every bite hits a little differently—in the best way.
Why This Taco Works So Well
New Year, New Pollo was designed with intention:
-
Fresh and vibrant, without feeling “light” or boring
-
Balanced acidity and smoke that keep each bite interesting
-
Built to pair effortlessly with beer
It’s the kind of taco you order “just to try” and then immediately consider ordering again.
Perfect with Beer (Obviously)
This taco plays exceptionally well with our beer lineup. The citrus, spice, and herbal notes make it a natural match for:
-
Crisp, refreshing styles
-
Dry, food-friendly beers
-
Anything you want to drink more than one of
If you’re the kind of person who likes their food and beer working together, this one’s for you.
