Cantina at Distrito kick off event this Sunday

College students, don't say Jose Garces never did anything for you.� By now you know that the megachef has transformed the first floor of his Mexico-city inspired, flamingo-pink funhouse Distrito (3945 Chestnut St.)� into The Cantina at Distrito, a casual-but-still-flourescent gathering place where no menu item tops $10 and Tecates can be had for $2.

A welcome-back-to-school fiesta this Sunday, Sept. 13 introduces the Cantina at Distrito's mission-style quesadillas, tacos al carbon and fresh-fruit loaded margaritas and caipirinhas to West Philly.� From 8-11 p.m., live music by Adrian Hardy and complimentary snacks will accompany those $2 Tecates and $5 margaritas.

Entrance is free but space is limited; hit up rsvp@grg-mgmt.com if you plan to attend.

After the jump, take a look at the Cantina at Distrito's full food and beverage menus.
