The XVI summer Gala of the Concordia Association turned the Villa del Mar of the Marbella Club into a delightful replica of Mexico.

            
The Gala tittled VIVA MEXICO! gathered 350 people that were greeted by Menzu the Mariachi and an adorable donkey loaded with José Cuervo tequila.

            
A great green carpet with cacti on either side, by the courtesy of Ferjoin Plant Nursery, led the guests to an exotic mexican ambiance
where they were offered typical margaritas made with Cuervo tequila and the well known Coronita mexican beer.

             
The fantastic decoration, that was highly appreciated, was the work of Holland Flowers and Red Carpet Events.
The delicious hors d´oeuvre made by Puente Romano and served during the cocktail were also much  praised.
 

             
During the dinner a typical mexican ceviche ,courtesy of Güey Restaurant, the  pumpkin soup and  rack of lamb cooked by Marbella Club´s chef Juan Galvez
and the dessert as always due to Lepanto´s generosity  were a topic of conversation.

All this was accompanied by outstanding wine and cava thanks to the courtesy of of Bodegas Lara and Juvé Camps.
