It being Gabriel José García Márquez' 80th birthday, according to all the news sources, we’d decided on a sort of fusion Colombian and Mexican cuisine menu. After all, our celebrated author is from Colombia but resides most of the time in Mexico. That’s about as much inspiration as I need… and I started off with recipes for some of the “national dishes” of Colombia… and then went a bit “out there” from that point.
Comment from the host of the evening:
"I've been besieged by everybody who attended, to comment on what a great time they had and about the fantastic food, service and atmosphere. I was thrilled. (That sancocho! That ajiaco!) Many many thanks. It is obvious that the very creative work you do is a labor of love.... Thanks again for a memorable evening." - E.G.
