A four-course, family-style dinner from Chef Marcela Salas, inspired by the childhood tables of Kadyn, Erik and June.
In a restaurant, family meal is the dinner the staff shares before service. Everyone sits down together, whoever you are.
On Oct. 19, BibiSol is setting that table for District 15. Each of our candidates brought Chef Marcela a dish from home. She turned each one into a course. As it comes out, the candidate tells the story behind it.
The food, the space and the evening are graciously donated by the BibiSol family. Every ticket dollar goes to Blue 15 PAC.
Housemade macaroni in a cheddar and butternut squash mornay, topped with a potato chip and oat crumble.
