Chef Daniel Chavez from OLA Cocina Del Mar will be whipping up a splendid eight-course menu at Shangri-La Hotel Singapore. The dinner pays tribute to his Peruvian heritage by showcasing the influences of ethnic migration on his native fare. From stew to spaghetti to gnocchi, each dish features the “Papas Nativas”, or the Nativa Potato, which originate from Ayacucho in the deep Andes of Peru. These tubers are the purest form of pre-Incan potatoes grown in an artisanal way with original seeds, then harvested by hand in protected areas. Guests can taste the Japanese influences in Nikkei from the crab and potato stew with seaweed, marital chilli and mirin, and the Chinese influences in Chifa from the stir-fried beef with onion, tomatoes, soy sauce & vinegar and thick cut fries. To create a sensorial experience, chef Chavez has also brought back spices, organic chocolates, teas and dried corn from his hometown.
