After the fab night out at Style Review on Monday, the week of fun and fabulousness continued with the launch of Touche Hombre on Thursday evening.
With Mexican food the seemingly hottest cuisine in town at the moment, a point of difference at any establishment is important. Touche Hombre, located on the corner of Lonsdale St and Tattersalls lane opposite QV, provided it in spades and put on a party some won’t forget for a while – even with the aid of tequila.

A donkey greeted guests on the street before waitresses handed out cocktails like candy. Tequila was the beverage of choice, and as the room filled up, and it was more difficult for the waitresses to get through, the bar became the place to be as the bar boys dipped glasses in salt and mixed drinks.
The food was served in small morsels – corn on the cob with spices, various taco tasters and tostatidos hovered on trays above heads while waitresses squeezed through. You had to be quick to try these bite size bits.
You can only book for lunch on Fridays – the latest trend in restaurants is not taking bookings – but when you are as cool as these guys, chances are, you don’t need to.
