Campeones, campeones! Olé-olé-olé! 🏆🌮
The dust has settled on the inaugural Oathie’s Taco T.K.O. and we have our champions….
Foreign Exchange, led by Chef Judy Reyna, took home the Judges’ Choice title with a carne asada shawarma taco. On the peoples’ side, it was Milo’s Market one-man machine Chef Gilberto Bahena taking home the hardware for his iconic quesabirria taco!
A massive salute goes out to all of our competitors for braving the sun and heat over their respective grills. The voting was as close as we’ve ever had in a competition, which is a testament to all four of them and the creative fire they each bring to their art. Big, big love goes out to our guest judges: Anthony Martorina, Jacob Sembrano, and Tim Fi**en for taking the time to tear up some tacos with us.
Lastly, much love to all of you who joined us for round one of this taco throwdown. As always, you are the reason we host these parties and we hope to see you at the next one, our annual Viking Family Harvest, on October 17th in Naperville.
