Cinco de Mayo falls on Taco Tuesday this year, and Fort Myers Beach venues Wahoo Willie's, Snug Harbor and Smokin' Oyster Brewery are staging a bar crawl with taco and drink specials. Congresswoman Ilhan Omar will host a "Cinco de Mayo on Lake Street" event to spotlight and support immigrant-owned businesses. Dallas-Fort Worth business listings warn the holiday overlaps heavy restaurant bookings and several corporate earnings notices, increasing foot traffic for bars and eateries. Brewers and restaurants are also promoting themed drinks like a Mexican-style dark lager called Laguna Baja and Michelada recipes, making the date a major sales night and a chance to try limited-time Mexican-inspired offerings.
