Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s 15th Annual Chile Pepper Fiesta
By The Changeling | September 27, 2007
Since I love hot and spicy food, I couldn’t resist posting this upcoming event taking place this Sunday at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden (BBG). The 15th Annual Chile Pepper Fiesta looks like it’s going to be great fun.
The folks over at the BBG describe the fiesta wonderfully:
It’s an absolutely delightful event designed to celebrate the chile plant as it is used in cultures all over the world, from the Caribbean to Asia to South & Central America and Mexico. Positively chock full of music, dance, and culinary adventures inspired by these cultures– this year’s lineup includes duo Ringold & Ellis performing fiery feats of flame (including the famous “fire umbrella”– woot!), Peruvian dance from Ballet Folklorico Peru, hot Caribbean rhythms from Sesame Flyers Steel Pan Orchestra, the borough’s own Brooklyn Petro hot sauce makers whipping up a batch of their spicy manna, Latin/Jewish fusion cooking from Post Punk Kitchen and much more.
Sounds like another excellent program brought to you by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. To read more and check out the complete schedule of events, click here.
