Farm-to-table Dinner: Spirit of Siam, from Thailand to the farm

Chef Zach shares his specialty in Thai cuisine through a vibrant multi-course farm to table dinner. His cooking is shaped by five years spent in a Tampa Buddhist temple where he prepared daily meals and ran the temple’s market, blending tradition with creativity. Using the freshest harvest from the garden alongside authentic Thai ingredients, he creates an evening filled with bright flavors, beautifully balanced dishes, and a genuine connection to the season and his own culinary journey.
