Singaporean, Argentine And Ethiopian Dinners Featured ‘Use My Kitchen, Tell Your Story’ 2023 Dinner Series
Edible Magazine San Luis Obispo announced the headliners for the 2023 ‘Use My Kitchen, Tell Your Story’ dinner series, in partnership with Travel Paso. In this series of meals, area restaurants and individuals offer the use of their kitchens to chefs who have immigrated to the United States. The chefs will tell their stories to dinner guests through the dishes served, using food as a tool to find common ground and foster understanding.
This year’s featured chefs include Emily Lim, Singapore born and bred and now residing and cooking in San Francisco; Pablo Lamon from Argentina who runs his business in Miami and consults in Turks and Caicos, and widely known for his time on Bravo’s Top Chef; and Helen Abraha, local favorite who immigrated from Ethiopia and now owns food popup Ebony.
“We are excited to again bring to San Luis Obispo County three distinct and intimate dinners highlighting cuisine from around the world, and giving guests the opportunity to enjoy an evening of storytelling and diverse menus curated by such talented chefs – tasting the foods that have shaped their lives,” said Gail
Cayetano Classick, Publisher of Edible Magazine San Luis Obispo. “To say that we are honored that the chefs are sharing these personal memories and dishes with us, would be an understatement.”
Chef Pablo Lamon, Chef and Owner of Lamon Culinary Group, said, “I’ll be cooking my vision of a modern approach to Argentine cuisine. Argentina is all about fun, passion and eating, so guests can expect that out of this very special menu – I know it is very special to me.”
This is Edible Magazine’s second year running the ‘Use My Kitchen, Tell Your Story’ dinner series, after a sold out run in 2022. In a new partnership with Travel Paso all dinners in 2023 will take place in the Paso Robles region, at Thomas Hill Organics, Hartley Farms and The Frunchroom, slated to open this summer. Dinners will run from August through October welcoming guests from throughout California, and are event produced by Amanda Holder Events and culinary produced by Chef Rachel Ponce. Wine pairings for the series are provided by ONX Wines, Brecon Estate Wines, and Law Estate Wines, hospitality service by Criu Hospitality and visual design by Medina Light Show Designs.
