Colombian flavors at the Westin
As part of commemorative activities to mark 100 years of diplomatic ties between Japan and Colombia, a "Colombia Gourmet" fair is being held at Victor's restaurant at the Westin Hotel Tokyo through May 20.
Organized by the Colombian Embassy in Tokyo, the fair features special lunch and dinner courses created by Colombian chefs Leonor Espinosa and Catalina Velez that showcase the traditional flavors of Colombian cuisine.
Espinosa, executive chef and owner of the renowned Leo Cocina y Cava restaurant in Bogota, is cooking up some contemporary Colombian dishes that combine the vibrant influences of the Caribbean and the original flavors of Colombia's diverse regions.
