What started as a hilarious April Fools’ prank has turned into a sweet reality for Miami food lovers this weekend. Bodega Taqueria y Tequila teased a “Papi Churro” dessert taco on April 1, igniting a wave of excitement—and disappointment—among fans eager to taste the inventive treat. Now, just two months later, the joke is on the menu.
Florida’s bustling culinary scene took notice when enthusiastic followers flooded the restaurant’s social media with comments and DMs begging for the quirky dish. So much so, that Bodega decided to partner with Santo Dulce Churros & Ice Cream, Miami’s premier artisanal churro makers, to bring their viral creation to life.
The result? An authentic, handcrafted churro taco filled with innovative Latin-inspired flavors, available exclusively from June 6 through June 8 in celebration of National Churro Day.
A Weekend of Sweet Surprises
The limited-edition churro taco features freshly made, homemade churros shaped into taco shells, stuffed with unique fillings like:
– Santa Fresa: A fruity twist combining strawberries, dulce de leche, and cheese — a salty-sweet Colombian-inspired flavor.
– Hot Mango: Fresh mango topped with Tajín spice and spicy mango sauce—perfect for heat and sweetness lovers.
– Dubai-Inspired (Exclusive at The Doral Yard): Pistachio and Nutella with crunchy pistachio crumbs, inspired by Dubai’s viral chocolate trend.
Availability is limited to three days only, so avid dessert fans should mark their calendars.
