ABOUT VIVA ABEJAS
You might be wondering - why did Chef Richard Sandoval choose bees?
OUR MISSION
Our food system heavily depends on bees. One in every three bites of food depends on bees for pollination. As a restaurant group focused on Latin cuisine, bees are important as they are major pollinators of the agave plant and avocados. Join us from March 26 - April 22, 2024 at Richard Sandoval restaurants around the globe & enjoy a bee-centric food & drink collection.FOOD SPECIALS
