Globally inspired from cultures all around the world: The Orange Shrimp ๐ค
Almost everyone has tried an orange chicken dish and has a food memory associated with it. We took the classic version and elevated it by swapping in shrimp and adding some baby bok choy. Our orange sauce alone is made up of 12 ingredients. When is the first time you remember having orange chicken? ๐ค

Everything we do is done with a purpose. From the simple act of roasting our corn husk on to the 48 hours of prep we invest in our rotisserie chicken. For our chefs, every tortilla is the canvas for a hand-crafted work of art that looks and tastes amazing.
