🔥 NIGHT AT THE GAS STATION #23

For our next dinner, we’re welcoming Guest Chef Fernando for a one-night-only collaboration with Chef Cristian De León.

Fernando’s culinary journey started on St. Paul’s West Side and has taken him into some of the country’s most respected kitchens. A Le Cordon Bleu graduate, he sharpened his technique through stages at 3-Michelin-starred Grace in Chicago and Saison in San Francisco, before working at acclaimed Twin Cities restaurants including Popol Vuh, Vann, and Demi.

Today, Fernando is back where his story began, bringing new energy to Boca Chica and cooking food rooted in Latin tradition with precision, creativity, and a modern point of view.

For Night at the Gas Station, Fernando and Cristian will come together to create an intimate 6-course tasting menu, celebrating where they come from while pushing those flavors somewhere new. Each course will be thoughtfully paired with house-crafted non-alcoholic mocktails, designed to complement and elevate the experience from start to finish.

THIS WEEK EL SAZON TURNED 4!!! ❤️‍🔥🌮

If you would’ve told us 4 years ago that a little gas station kitchen would turn into all of this… We probably wouldn’t have believed you.

This hasn’t been easy.
There’s been a lot of long nights, stress, sacrifices, moments where we didn’t know how we were gonna make it… but we kept going.

Because of our family.
Because of our team.
Because of YOU.

El Sazón was never just about food.
It’s about people, cultura, and creating a space where everyone feels at home.

And somehow… here we are. 4 years later.

⸻

🎉 ANNIVERSARY PARTY THIS SUNDAY
Come celebrate with us Sunday 3/22 from 12 yo 5, eat, drink, hang out… just like day one but bigger. And can’t miss our Taco Eating contest!

⸻

NEXT “NIGHT AT THE GAS STATION” LINEUP IS ON FIRE 👨🏽‍🍳🔥

THEY ARE KIND OF A BIG DEAL…..

✨ Chef Kyle Lussier (The Pines) - April
Super creative, ingredient-driven, always doing something different. Respect.

✨ Chef Yia Vang (Vinai) - May
A storyteller through food. Someone we’ve looked up to for a long time—what he’s done for Hmong cuisine and the Twin Cities is powerful.

✨ Chef Nelson Cabrera (Travail) - June
Part of a team that just gets it—fun, creative, and always pushing the experience forward.

“Night at the Gas Station” started as something small… a crazy idea in a space that means everything to us. Now it’s something we’re really proud of.

🎟️ Date and tickets drop on the 10th of each month… and yeah, these will go fast.

⸻

From the bottom of our hearts thank you for rocking with us through everything. The highs, the lows, all of it.

4 years down. We’re still here. And we’re not done. ❤️
