ACT 1: The Origin. New York’s Tobalá meets Toronto’s Ficoa

For a few exclusive nights, we are bringing NYC’s Tobalá straight to Ficoa in Toronto. To kick off this monumental tasting menu, Chef Esaú presenta the Sikil Pack Andino - an amuse where two ancient empires coloide.

This dish beautifully weaves together two legacies:
- The deep, creamy base of toasted pumpkin seeds ( the Mayan connection).
- The bright, tangy acidity of andan tree tomaron ( the Incan connection).

Served with a warm, artesanal, pillowy butternut squash broche bun.

An unforgettable culinary Journey, starting right here in Toronto.

Seats are extremely limited for this NY x TO collaboration. Link in our bio to book.

El viaje del migrante — A Heritage Tasting Menu

What do we carry with us when we leave our country?

Some memories live in photographs, others in the stories we tell. And some remain quietly woven into the food we make, the ingredients we cherish, and the traditions we carry across borders.

El viaje del migrante is a tribute to the journey of migration, to the places that shape us, the flavours that bring us home, and the identities we continue to build along the way.

Through each dish, we honour the heritage that travels with us, even when everything else changes.

Because home is not always a place we return to. Sometimes, it is something we learn to carry.

Available for only October 2026.
