Day of the Dead (Dia de Los Muertos)
with
James Beard-Nominated Emma Janzen
and
Chef Michael Barrera
Music and Mezcal will be good friends here.
Meet Emma Janzen, author of James Beard-nominated book Mezcal: The History, Craft & Cocktails of the World’s Ultimate Artisanal Spirit; when she comes into town to curate a present-day Dia de Los Muertos (Day Of The Dead) dinner party with Latido’s Chef Michael Barrera.
Plan on a range of Mezcals, house-made tamales, perfect plates of mole oaxaqueno, flickering prayer candles, a hanging disco ball, and vintage vinyl, bringing good vibes and great music to this night of spirits. No pun intended
Emma, joining us from Chicago, is the digital content editor of Imbibe Magazine and Bon Appetit, PUNCH and Food Republic. Chef Michael is the creative-genius behind Hazel Park’s Latido, exploring the boundless flavors of Panama, Peru, and Argentina.
Together this-duo, famed for their innate attention to flavors will be burning down the house with an evening fully ingrained in Mexican culture.
