Shop 1/24 Cherry St, Ballina NSW 2478Get ready for a culinary fusion of fiery flavour and fine finesse as Bertie’s hosts a one-night-only pop-up with two exceptional chefs at the helm: Armando Enriquez Icaza and Juan Branto.
This exclusive event blends Mexican boldness with Argentinian soul for an evening that promises big flavour, warm vibes and impeccable technique.
Armando Enriquez Icaza – a Mexican chef now based in Northern NSW – is known for his playful yet respectful reinvention of traditional Mexican dishes. With a background spanning Mexico, the US and Australia, he now leads the kitchen at Tropical Fruit World and pops up wherever local ingredients call for celebration.
Juan Branto, born and raised in Argentina, brings precision and passion to the plate, backed by classical French training and experience at Alo’s Bistro (Argentina) and Restaurant Labart (Burleigh Heads). His food tells stories of heritage and heart, always with a refined edge.
Two chefs. One kitchen. A feast to remember.
