When have you had Chili King Crab with torrejitas de choclo in Miami?! Well when two of Miamiโ€™s best, ITAMAE x BALLOO, both led by James Beard-nominated chefs, and also 2 of my personal favorites, come together, it is MAGIC.

For their first Studio Sessions, all dishes were a collaboration between Timon Balloo and Nando Chang and their teams, which is basically an amalgamation of their respective cultures and heritage: Trinidadian, Chinese, Indian, and Peruvian. That means gorgeous curry calabaza tiradito, mussels escabeche served with naan, smoked jerk kampachi, and a halo-halo that features pandan-huacatay ice cream, cancha and sweet potato!๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ’ฅ It was my first time to try Peruvian natural winesโ€” Peruโ€™s 1st orange and redโ€” specially curated by wine director Karina Iglesias.

Stay tuned for more Itamae Studio Sessions collaborations, and Balloo 2.0!๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Ž Congratulations teamsโ€” it was truly one of the best collaborations weโ€™ve attended!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ๐ŸŒŸ
SWIPE! ๐Ÿ‘‰
