China Latina Night at The Venue
Thursday, June 9th, 2011
6pm-9pm & 9pm-12am
Chefs Lee Anne Wong and Camille Becerra are teaming up for one night only to pay tribute to New York City’s classic Chino-Latino restaurants. This collaboration will introduce the foods of their youth and respective cultures, resulting in a culinary celebration of the bold flavors of their respective heritages. The menu consists of assorted passed hors d’oeuvres and small plates, and the piece de resistance - a Pernil self-carving station. The dishes will be paired with specialty cocktails, and a full cash bar with beers from Asia and Latin America will also be available.
