History of Caifan Mtl
Caifan, the latest addition to the Barranco Partners family, boasts a history as vibrant and audacious as ancestral Mexican cuisine.
The concept of Caifan was conceived from the founder’s (Chef Eduardo Acosta) love for Mexico’s rich cultural heritage, particularly the profound link between pre-hispanic history and cuisine.
Our Inspiration
The establishment’s name draws inspiration from an expression used by a group of mexicans located in the US during the prohibitions.
The group was rebelling against the strict laws of the the prohibition by assembling in small dive bar to enjoy tequila and large meals. The expression at that time came from a variation of ”he’s fine”.
This expression embody the founder’s aspiration to stretch boundaries and challenge the status quo of Mexican cuisine in Montreal.
