Description
Presented by Roads & Kingdoms, The Anti-ICE Supper Club is a series of fundraising dinners in support of local organizations defending communities under attack—our small but vital contribution to the fight for immigrant America.
The series continues in Mexico City, with a special collaboration with Baldío, one of the city’s most exciting and boundary-breaking restaurants. The dinner will feature Baldío favorites served family-style and paired with house ferments, mezcal, beer, and pulque.
When: March 25, 2026; 2-10 pm; More information + tickets here.
Where: Antonio Sola 26 Colonia Condesa Cuauhtémoc, Ciudad de México, CDMX.
Net proceeds benefit: The Mexico City chapter of Al Otro Lado, a community-based organization founded in Tijuana whose mission is to uplift migrant communities on both sides of the U.S.–Mexico border. Al Otro Lado defends the rights of immigrants, refugees, and deported people in our communities in Mexico in an era of increasingly unjust immigration laws.

“In times like these, silence is not neutrality; it is complicity.”
— Pablo Usobiaga, Baldío
“To suggest that restaurants and food cannot—or should not—serve as political platforms is, at this moment, a naïve position,” says Baldío’s Pablo Usobiaga. “Baldío joins this initiative to express active solidarity with affected communities and to contribute, from its own sphere, to their defense and support.”
Baldío marks the next chapter for Arca Tierra, a leader in regenerative agriculture and Xochimilco chinampa conservation, and Silo London, a pioneer in sustainable gastronomy. With Arca Tierra as its dedicated sourcing department, Baldío embodies 15 years of efforts to build a regenerative food system. It all begins in Xochimilco, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an ideal setting for the restaurant team to learn ancestral farming techniques and harvest the produce directly used in their kitchen. Sourcing exclusively from local producers, the menu highlights the seasonal diversity of ingredients, blending traditional techniques with a contemporary vision.
