Guests will be impressed with a guacamole-making experience in the luxe lounge surroundings of La Mez, Mercadito's private lounge. The centerpiece of the lounge is a dramatic "inside-out bar." As guests arrive at Mercadito, your host will escort you down the stairs to the lounge. There, guests will find a "build-your-own guacamole" station, where you can choose from a range of ingredients such as peppers, fruits, spices and sauces to create your own unique guacamole. A Mercadito staff member will be on hand to mix all of the selected ingredients together for guests to devour.
