Released earlier this year in May, the film stars Favreau as a talented but creatively unchallenged chef who rediscovers his passion for cooking when he starts a Cuban food truck, and features Roy Choi as an (off-screen) technical consultant.

The multiple-course tasting will cost $75 per person, and will take place from "6:00 p.m. 'til the last Cubano is gone." Reservations for the Chef pop-up can be made through Animal every day after 2 p.m.

If you're not able to make it to the full tasting, El Jefe Cubanos will be available to-go for $9.
