aaron verzosa [archipelago]
Archipelago’s menu will be built around the current Filipino American History Curriculum currently being offered in Seattle Public schools. It’s the first endeavor of its kind in the country, and as a community partner to the program, Chef Aaron will showcase over a series of four courses how our everyday PNW food systems, small farms, producers, and local heros are all inherently linked to the Filipino culture. Expect to see such dishes as our handmade Miki noodle with Dungeness crab fat and heirloom chilies, pork belly lechon stuffed with local lemongrass, PNW rices in a charred sunchoke and winter truffle Talong sauce, and finally—a decadent dessert drawing influence from the Lunar New Year celebrated throughout the Philippines. This will not just be simply a dinner, but a multi-sensory experience that will engage guests in the history, art, and influence of Filipino Americans in our region.
