Description

Monica Mannion’s cooking trajectory is a full circle. Born in Mexico City, she attended the Cambridge Cookery School in the UK and found herself living in Shanghai, where she became the private chef for a Mexican diplomat. Monica’s connection to Mexican cuisine is deeply personal, and it’s her mission to expose her audience to the wide diversity of her homeland’s cooking, beyond the ubiquitous Tex Mex and Texicali fare that we all know. Monica returns to COOK this February for a love-themed lunch that features unique flavor combinations, transforming our senses: crema de cilantro con ajonjolí garapiñado (cream of cilantro with candied sesame seeds); pollo en salsa de pétalos de rosa (chicken in rose petal sauce); pastel de natas con naranja e hinojo (orange and fennel cake with nata, the sweet, silky cream that congeals from boiling raw milk); and to get you in the spirit of the afternoon, a tequila and chocolate cocktail!
