Rosa Mexicano at The Dubai Mall and Mirdif City Center May 3rd - 9th

Cinco de Mayo is an important milestone in Mexican history as it celebrates the Battle of Puebla, when a small contingent of Mexican soldiers led by General Ignacio Zaragoza defeated Napoleon's formidable army in a bloody battle. But it's also a great excuse to enjoy delicious Mexican food.
