Chicago.
Honored to provide oysters for the Jean Banchet Awards After Party.
I couldn’t have done this without my team
Tony and April, thank you for showing up with so much care, precision, and heart.
For the night, we shared Oyster Boricua
a reflection of my roots, built with
green mango, ají dulce, sweet plantain,
achiote oil on a Shigoku oyster.
Flavors I grew up with,
designed to let the oyster remain the star.
Alongside it, we poured my Diablo de Coco,
an oyster shooter with coconut, lime, cumin, tequila, and Serrano.
I’m grateful for the opportunity to showcase not only my work, but our work , representing Puerto Rican culture and Chicago, and sharing it with some truly incredible chefs.
My team is strong April, Luis, Tony, Topher Im not here without you.
WE FROM CHICAGO!
