Mexican Soul Food in the Heart of Downtown with Sonora Mexicana  - #digAVL Video 

A series on how local businesses are adjusting to the COVID-19 crisis

I don't know about you but some fresh elote, chile rellenos, and a fresh-squeezed margarita sound like just what we need to finish out the week! Sonora Cocina Mexicana, located in the heart of Downtown has all of the above and more. Owner Ted Burkhead fills us in on all of the ins and outs of what Sonora has been up to during COVID, how they're functioning now, and all of the delicious food you've been missing.
See the video interview here!

While we've all had to adjust to the "new normal" (whatever that is), our local business owners and managers each have their own story to tell about how they've been affected and what they are doing during these unprecedented times. Dig Local is proud to partner with our friend, Ann Smith, at Leap Frog Tours to interview some of the awesome folks who make Asheville, Asheville.
