Culture and community are core to our restaurants. Every community has its own culture, and in every culture, food plays a dynamic role. When we first started Trejo’s Tacos, we didn’t want to compete with the vibrant traditional Mexican food scene in Los Angeles. We wanted to find our own style, our own voice, while still paying respect to the LA Mexican food culture. With our recipes, we take authentic traditional ingredients and mash them up, bringing in influences from other cuisines and experimenting with new flavors. We see our food as representative of Los Angeles, built off historic roots, but a melting pot of cultures all influencing each other in some way. We strive to elevate, and when possible be a bit healthier through our ingredients. We want our restaurants to be places where the community can share experiences. We give back to the community when we can. For Danny, food has always played an important role and accounted for many of his most positive memories. From cooking with his mom to family dinners with his kids, on-set meals with new and old friends, and of course, the immediate visit to his local taco shop whenever he got released from a prison stay (Danny doesn’t think prison food is that good). In 2015, while filming the movie Bad Ass, the executive producer asked Danny if he would partner with him in the restaurant business. The answer was a big “Hell yes,” and now we truly feel like bad-ass restaurateurs.

In 1924, Arthur Rawdon Spinney, a British army officer stationed in Alexandria, Egypt, identified a need in the area for imported food products, planting the seed for what would later be one of the Middle East’s leading supermarket chains. Spinneys’ Dubai story started in 1961, with our first supermarket opening in Al Nasr Square in 1962. At that time, it was known locally as ‘The Frozen Chicken’ – the only retailer to sell frozen chickens from a chiller van. Such innovation has remained. Spinneys enjoys a well-deserved reputation for forward-thinking, keeping pace with changes in cooking trends and the emergence of new products worldwide. Today, Spinneys Dubai, owned by UAE national Mr Ali Albwardy, has built a strong name for supplying top quality produce and offering a high level of customer service. Yet food standards, safety and freshness have always been at the forefront of the company’s ethos – just one reason why the Spinneys brand is defined as ‘The fresher experience’. In order to maintain customer satisfaction, Spinneys constantly monitors shopping trends and reacts quickly and effectively to customer suggestions and feedback. With in-store bakeries, butcheries and delicatessens, we’re able to deliver not only on the promise of freshness, but variety, too. As well as supporting local food producers within the UAE, we have also developed an enviably comprehensive network of reputable suppliers around the world. These suppliers – our producers – help us to provide you with the freshest international products on the shelves every day. Our in-store system is committed to ensuring a hygienic, controlled and safe environment in which every department is well-presented and welcoming with knowledgeable, friendly staff on hand to make your food shopping experience as easy and enjoyable as possible.

The Dublin Whiskey Distillery Co. is a premium Irish whiskey company based in Dublin, Ireland specialising in the procurement, design and brand management of our proprietary whiskey expressions to meet the growing global demand for Irish whiskey. In the annals of Irish distilling, the name and reputation of D.W.D. [Dublin Whiskey Distillery] is one of the most illustrious. We have embraced the opportunity to return this icon of Irish whiskey to the market along with the ambition that the D.W.D. mark will once again set a standard of quality and excellence through our brands and our whiskey. The revival of the D.W.D. brand has begun with the creation of a new independent Irish whiskey blender and bottler with long-term strategic access to the very best aged whiskey stocks which are selected and managed by a panel of exceptional distilling and blending expertise. The launch of the D.W.D. Heritage edition, exactly 71 years to the day after the original D.W.D. distillery was sold at auction, marked the start of a journey that will, we believe, restore the reputation of what was once one of the world’s most sought-after whiskeys.
