Join local chef Nico Vera for a night of a classic Peruvian food!

Throughout the evening Nico will be talking about the history of these dishes, while a slide-show presents photographs from hi recent trip to Peru. And, of course, a criollo dinner would not be complete without some Afro-Peruvian tunes playing on the radio.

The evening's menu is inspired by the flavors of fall:

Carapulcra
a potato stew from the Andes made with dehydrated potatoes, peanut sauce, chocolate, spices, and heritage pork / served with a salad, bread, and pickled red onion

Mazamora Morada
a purple corn pudding
