1400 Food Lab is pleased to present our next Sunday Supper – a monthly dinner event featuring one or more of the amazing makers who call our kitchens home. Big platters of food passed around the table, sharing stories and conversations, forging friendships, new and old, over a common love of good food, done well. Through these meals, our makers will share with you the cultural heritage, family traditions, seasonal influences, and modern methods that continue to shape their food philosophy, cooking styles, and signature dishes.
In this dinner, Bidisha Nag of Create Your Curry will serve an extensive menu of some of her most beloved and popular recipes. She calls some of her dishes “Modern/ Fusion Bengali” where she uses American fish, meat and vegetables to create her native Bengali meal. These dishes are rarely found at local Indian restaurants. And she aims to prove that Indian food is most definitely wine-friendly with help from good friend and oenophile, Christine Varga.
An assortment of wine and beer specially selected to
complement the menu will be available for separate purchase.
