Sometimes it’s important to eat outside your comfort zone. B3’s Executive Chef Jeffrey Salazar is digging into his Filipino roots for a pop-up event in partnership with fellow islander and Cross Cultures founder Cheryl Tiu to promote global community and intercultural relations through really, really good food. On Tuesday, September 18th, come feast on recipes and treats from the Philippines, including snacks like Green Mango with Shrimp Paste, a sample of some classic street foods, and entrees like Chef’s Mom’s Sweet and Sour Fish, Smoked Ribs with Adobo Sauce, and a lot more (seriously, it’s a ton of food). Tickets are $65, including all of your food plus live tunes from the Berklee School of Music. There isn’t a lot of Filipino food in Boston, so don’t miss your chance to get some. Call the restaurant at 617.997.0211 for your seat, and check out the full menu below.
