 CENTRAL is in Peru, but CACAO is right here.

Wednesday, November 30, 2016 6:30 - 9:30pm, CACAO - Progressive Latin

CACAO is a new restaurant, in my neighbourhood. Chef Jefferson Alvarez has created a Modern Latin menu that will excite your palates. Crafted cocktails are superb. And you may have heard of a restaurant in PERU called CENTRAL which is the brainchild of Chef Virgilio Martinez. We would love to meet Virgilio one day, but until we do, we would love to offer you an opportunity to celebrate his new book with Jefferson Alvarez at CACAO.

Tonight Jefferson will prepare and serve a menu from CENTRAL. Please join us to experience the warmth of CACAO and the cuisine of Virgilio Martinez.

Cost of this evening is $150.00 and will include your meal, libation and a copy of CENTRAL.
