The Made in New Orleans Foundation (MiNO) is excited to welcome the return of Pass the Peas Week in the city. The weeklong effort is designed to showcase the underrepresented restaurant owners in the city.
Funds raised for the event will support MiNO’s commitment to providing education and resources for upward mobility in the restaurant, hospitality for BIPOC talent.
Pass the Peas Week takes place from Saturday, Nov. 5 through Friday, November 11, 2022 in New Orleans.
The week concludes with a special event — Pass the Peas After Hours at Hotel St. Vincent — which runs from Fri, Nov 11, 2022, 9:00 PM – Sat, Nov 12, 2022, 1:00 AM CST.
Helming the affair will be Chef Serigne Mbaye, a James Beard finalist, who will be accompanied by a stable of MiNO alumni chefs preparing a culinary experience like no other.
When New Orleans’ food is mentioned on a national level, it somehow always reverts back to gumbo, which is the best around, although the city’s eateries certainly represent those dishes well, there’s so much more.
