Paolo and Pichet, colleagues with mutual admiration, will showcase some of their collaborative culinary hits from DC bakery/ cafe/ restaurant Hiraya that are brunch inspired – for example, French Toast with ricotta, peppery mushroom sisig, and savory vegetable ube lumpia.  Both chefs, with classic European culinary backgrounds and a passion for Southeast Asian ingredients, have partnered to create a new genre, inspired by a diaspora that is distinctly New American, and reflective of their personal stories.
