DANIEL, Venezuela

 

“We’re always looking for any excuse to celebrate. My people are so friendly. That’s the best part.”

 
 
 
 

Daniel hails from Caracas, the vibrant capital of Venezuela, nestled between the mountains and the Caribbean Sea. Even with the country’s undeniable natural beauty, Daniel says it’s the people who make it truly special, and seeking joy and laughter is a key part of their culture. “The most valuable thing we have is the people – not just Venezuela, but the people from Venezuela.”

A typical Venezuelan gathering is a joyful and informal affair – talking, singing, dancing, eating, and lively conversations happening, all at once. Community, celebration and cooking go hand in hand, making everyone feel like they belong. In his cooking experiences, Daniel hopes to convey a taste of Venezuela’s natural warmth and vibrancy. He’ll also be sharing his signature flavour - a combination of sweet and salty!

Most of all, Daniel wants you, his lovely guests, to have a great time. “Any excuse for a party!”

 
 

  • Daniel’s menu is the perfect balance of salty and sweet. There’s Tizana, a vibrant and fruity tropical punch (say goodbye to coffee!), served daily in the warm Venezuelan weather. There’s Patacones - plantain chips - fried until golden and crispy, and topped with a sweet and sour crunchy slaw. There’s Daniel’s favourite (and a staple in his hometown), his Arroz a la marinera, a seafood rice that is both warm and comforting, finished with a hit of charred lemon. There’s his Cachacas, sweet corn pancakes filled with feta cheese and butter, and so much more! Trust us, your tastebuds will definitely dancing!
