Fusion cuisine has established itself as one of the most popular dining options in New York, with the rise of several ethnic food blends and their respective specialty chefs. Following that trend, Mexican-born chef Julian Medina ventured into the world of kosher foods after marrying his wife and converting to Judaism. With a menu that changes every year, Medina’s proposal includes margaritas made with Agave 99 Kosher tequila and chipotle braised brisket tacos, amongst other interesting concoctions.
