Danny Mena Author

Acclaimed by Vanity Fair, Rolling Stone, the Los Angeles Times, and The New York Times, Mexico City-born Danny Mena began at New York landmarks Blue Hill and The Modern before opening Hecho en Dumbo in 2010. For six years, Hecho en Dumbo refined rustic Mexican comfort food and contemporary Mexico City cuisine from its location on the Bowery until late 2016; a new restaurant concept will open in the same location in 2019. In 2017, Mena launched La Loncheria with new partners in Brooklyn s Bushwick neighborhood, and has partnered in a mezcal distillery, Mezcales de Leyenda. He lives in New York City with his wife, kids, and dog. This is his first book.
