A new dinner series is giving underrepresented chefs the chance to showcase their culinary talents—and letting Torontonians indulge in the cuisine of the Black diaspora
.founders and chefs Adisa Glasgow, Yohannes Asres, Dwight Smith and Anthony Harrison invite racialized chefs to curate multi-course tasting menus, each inspired by a theme and with the proceeds going toward community initiatives.
The whole team, including sommelier Beverly Crandon , event coordinator Sheila Cardenas and creative director Tamara Medina to curate the drink pairings. “We show her the menu, we tell her what the chefs are doing and she just does amazing pairings. People are like,—she just knows,” says Medina. “She also makes an effort to highlight bottles from Black-owned wineries, which is very important to us.
Noir Experience also gives chefs control over their own dishes. “In Toronto, there’s not really much room for growth and creativity,” says Asres. “As someone who runs a kitchen, I have no control over facilitating a menu. Noir Experience gave me the chance to create something that was mine and something that was meaningful.”Four Black women chefs will prepare an eight-course tasting menu, the proceeds of which will be donated to The Shoe Box Project.
