Free Author Talk: Yana Gilbuena’s No Forks Given | Omnivore Books

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Gilbuena has an evangelical zeal to share the cuisine of her childhood in the Visayas region of the central Philippines. Her first pop-up was in Bushwick, where she made chicken binakol in a pot as high as her waist.

On the road she has learned to improvise, converting a panini press to make tocino (sweet cured pork), baking rice in the oven to free up burners and simmering alligator in coconut milk in Mississippi. Come let her entice you into the world of Visayas cooking.
