I loved @chopnblok_ before it even existed, before the brick and mortar, before the plates and pairings because I believed in the vision. In the power of food to honor legacy, trace heritage, and make food feel like home. Roots & Routes was more than a dinner. It was a return. A reminder that flavor can carry history, and the table can hold our joy, our pain, and our triumphs all at once. To be fed in every sense of the word… I’ll never forget it. Thank you @o.amosu for allowing me a seat at the table. So honored to partake in Houston Culinary History and revel in the talent of @chefevelyngarcia @chefhenrylu @dishwasher89. Don’t even consider coming to @visit_houston without adding @tatemo_htx @junhtx and @chopnblok_ to your itinerary. #RootsAndRoutes #ChopnBlok #FriendsOfTheBlok #FoodAsStory #DiasporaDining
