The Lumberjack

Not one to be shy with a mallet, Lumberjacks bring pure brawn to the table, smashing even the mightiest Chocolate Piñatas with a single swing.

Characteristics

First to reach for mallet
2-hand technique
Complete smash in 1 swing
Smash often accompanied by primal grunts

Post-Smash

The Lumberjack will stake their claim, immediately reaching for the most attractive churros and chunks of fresh fruit. It’s also no surprise to see the Lumberjack claim a dipping sauce as their own.

Other Favorites

Carne Asada: Hand-cut, aged & marinated to perfection.
Dos Equis: Lager for the logger.
Made-From-Scratch Steak Fajitas: Mesquite-grilled, of course.

The Ninja

Cunning and quick, the ninja wastes no time smashing the Chocolate Piñata, often freeing the fresh fruit and churros before anyone realizes who has the mallet.

Characteristics

Lightning-fast swings
Acquires mallet through stealth
Downward chopping angle
Attacks Chocolate Piñata from all sides

Post-Smash

The ninja moves quickly, swiping their desired fresh fruit and churros with the grace and skill of a cat. Beware, sauces go from there to gone in seconds when a nina is present.

Other Favorites

Margarita of the Month: if only to watch our bartenders slice fruit.
Dos Equis: these are sneaky good.
Fajita Quesadillas: a lighter option for those light on their feet.

The Relayer

A total team player, the relayer is happy to play a small role in helping to smash the Chocolate Piñata, often taking a small swing before passing the mallet down the line.

Characteristics

Proud member of a group
Gentle swings so everyone gets a turn
Willing to share the spotlight
Loudly cheers tablemates on

Post-Smash

The relayer is happy to share the spoils with the entire team. Relayers can often be heard recommending different sauce and fruit combinations to their tablemates.

Other Favorites

Tableside Guacamole: the perfect team-building app
The Swirl: margaritas and sangrias working together
Honey Habanero Shrimp: Just enough spice to share

The Influencer

Chasing likes and the perfect lighting, the influencer ensures there are multiple camera angles covered before they even grab their mallet. “If a smash isn’t seen on Instagram, did it even really happen?”

Characteristics

Waits for the perfect lighting.
Checks their look before each swing.
Considers asking for a second Piñata for a second take.

Post-Smash

The influencer posts their smash video way before the last churro is dipped in sauce. The good news for everyone else at the table? They are too busy monitoring comments so you get all the best bites.

Other Favorites

Grilled Vegetable Fajitas: the bright colors of these veggies look great on the ‘gram.
Perfect Patron: only the finest things for this tastemaker.
