Tropic Lady, a new restaurant and bar in Fort Worth, is set to make its mark at the Fort Worth Food + Wine Festival with their mouthwatering plantain tacos. With a laid-back atmosphere and a menu featuring unique twists on classic dishes, Tropic Lady aims to provide a memorable dining experience for festivalgoers.
Embracing a tropical theme, Tropic Lady offers a range of healthy-ish food options such as bowls, salads, and wraps. But it's their plantain tacos that are stealing the show. Each corn tortilla is filled with a delicious combination of mashed black bean spread, crispy plantains, tropic slaw, pickled onions, and cilantro. The tacos are then drizzled with pineapple-jalapeño crema and topped with roasted pepitas, creating a delightful blend of flavors and textures.
As the festival approaches, the anticipation surrounding Tropic Lady's opening is palpable. With their participation in the Fort Worth Food + Wine Festival, they have the perfect opportunity to engage with potential customers and generate buzz for their upcoming debut. Amanda Yunger, the director of marketing for Tropic Lady and The Bearded Lady, views the festival as a form of free advertising and a chance to showcase one of their signature items.

But plantain tacos are just the beginning of Tropic Lady's culinary offerings. Their menu features other tropical-inspired dishes such as a burger with grilled pineapple tossed in a bourbon-maple glaze and cayenne, and guacamole infused with pickled jicama and topped with mango chutney and Tajin. With their soft opening scheduled just two days after the festival, Tropic Lady aims to capitalize on the heightened interest and excitement generated by the event.
