Cinco De Mayo is usually reserved for drinking, however, one Philadelphia restaurant is giving away desserts to celebrate the day. El Merkury is giving away 555 stuffed or mini-looped churros to celebrate its fifth anniversary next Friday.
Starting at 11 a.m. the first 555 people to come to the Central American eatery's 2104 Chestnut Street location will receive a sweet treat.
The restaurant will have its full menu available all day. In addition to the churro giveaway, El Merkury will also be hosting a birthday fiesta from 6 p.m. until it closes at 8 p.m. that night with music curated by DJ Dre Ovalle.
Three lucky winners can also enter to win a $55 gift card to El Merkury. All you have to do is follow the eatery's Instagram account, follow user @josheatsphilly, like this post, and tag a friend in the comments. Every comment is an entry and there is no limit on entries.
