DUSTY DINNERS
We invite incredibly talented chefs to Dalston, who offer one-off dinners served up in the warmth of our bakery. The line-up is sizzling, the food delicious, and the evenings a vibe.
It’s like having your best mate come and cook you a delicious feast.

Keeping up the hot streak with the next Dusty Dinners feat. a top notch taco spread from Sonora Taqueria 💫
Michelle & Sam are the wife and husband team behind our fave authentic Sonora state street food restaurant, just down the road in N16.
Standing outside their shop with homemade grilled pineapple and habanero salsa dripping saucy patterns on your Tshirt is one of Hackney’s finest dining experiences. Come see what it’s about!
They’re transporting us to Northern Mexico and Michelle’s home city of Hermosillo - a manor known for its quality beef, where fresh tortillas and fried snacks are shared among family. Seriously delish scran for the last Dusty Dinners of the season before pizza nights start back in the yard.
Get ready….
TOTOPOS & GUACAMOLE
The mexican staple to welcome you to your table
CARNE SECA
Sonoran beef jerky, served toasted and dressed in a mix of spicy and tangy salsas.
TACOS DORADOS
Crispy, fried tacos in a bright tomatillo and avocado salsa.
Cabeza: slow braised ox tongue in cheek, rich and indulgent
Veggie: Chorizo: Spiced and smoky mushrooms with potato.
PARA COMPARTIR
Build your own tacos, a sharing platter for two with all the trimmings: handmade tortillas, refried beans, fresh cheese, and red rice.
Beef rib in chile colorado - A take on a Sonoran classic. Confit in its own fat then cooked again in a rich Chile Colorado sauce until it’s melting off the bone.
Veggie: Chile Verde Relleno (V) - Stuffed green chiles served with creamy jocoque and charred onions.
COYOTA DE PILONCILLO
The emblematic dessert of Hermosillo (home). A flaky pastry stuffed with raw cane sugar caramel. Served with whipped Cajeta cream.
A special DD twist on traditional caballeros food, eaten after a long day riding under the desert sun … or in a Dalston bakery on Friday night.
Come down on the 4th of April for one final fiesta before Dalston gets a pizza makeover for the summer.
DUSTY DINNERS WITH SONORA TAQUERIA
Sonora Taqueria are our local Mexican based in N16. Founded by husband and wife Michelle and Sam, these guys are masters of the tortilla and authentic Mexican.
Standing outside their shop with their homemade grilled pineapple and habanero salsa dripping out of the bottom of your taco is one of the finest experiences Hackney to offer.
We’re both about bread, wrapping things in it, filling it up, making it well.
Michelle and Sam have created something knock out for the final dinner. A little different from their usual offering of Hermosillo street food, they are taking us to Michelles home town of Sorona, Northern Mexico. A small rural town where you’re more likely to find rustic, family style plates of soups and stews, with fresh tortillas and fried snacks.
This is traditional cowboy food meant to be eaten under the desert sun! (Or in a bakery on a Friday night?!)
