There’s no such thing as too many cooks in the kitchen for Ghost Ranch chefs Rene Andrade and Robert Centeno.
In fact, they just launched a monthly series where they invite other locally renowned chefs into the kitchen with them to create a unique five-course meal. The first guest chef is Samantha Sanz of Talavera on Wednesday, November 13 from 6 to 9 p.m.
Andrade, Centeno and Sanz are all from Nogales and each dish will reflect their roots. Each course also comes with a beverage pairing. Tickets are $75 each and can be purchased on Eventbrite.
The menu will include:
First Course
Cured salmon, green chiltepin aguachile tostada, radish salad and pickled avocado mousse
Paired with: Mohua sauvignon blanc
Second Course
