SUMMARY:Baconstravaganza with Celestia's Coastal Cuisine
DESCRIPTION:Being the chef behind Soul Food Bistro will get you a lot of love in Jacksonville. Just ask Chef Celestia Mobley. Chef Celestia may be beloved and best known for her soul food\, but that’s certainly not all she does. In 2017 she opened her own restaurant\, Celestia’s Coastal Cuisine\, and the locals can’t get enough. In preparing for this event I stopped at Celestia’s and was met with a woman walking out of the restaurant\, hollering to her friend\, “That’s the best sweet tea I have EVER HAD!” Talk about a rave review! Whatever you have at Celestia’s Coastal Cuisine\, it’s certainly going to stick with you as a memorable meal. It’s just that good. \nCelestia’s Coastal Cuisine specializes in seafood\, but Chef Celestia herself is a classically trained chef who can make pretty much everything delicious. Bacon is one of her personal favorites\, so her creative wheels starting turning the second we started talking about a six course dinner centered around bacon. This menu is a beautiful mosaic of Chef Celestia’s imagination and some of the dishes and ingredients integral in her restaurant. We can’t get over the Bacon Butter Candle\, which is an actual candle made of butter and bacon fat\, to dip your bread in. This is an event you don’t want to miss!

SUMMARY:Venezuelan Dinner Adventure
DESCRIPTION:Sotos kitchen is a firecracker of a small restaurant on the southside. If you go and try it you won’t soon forget it. Specializing in Venezuelan cuisine\, Soto’s Kitchen serves arepas to empanadas to tostones to cheesy delicious cachapas. Nearly all of it is accompanied by Soto’s Kitchen housemade cilantro garlic sauce. We liken it to Venezuelan ranch- it’s good on everything and you can’t get enough.  \nThe story behind Soto‘s Kitchen is a beautiful American-Venezuelan story. Both the owner\, Aristides Soto\, and the chef\, Lorelen\, were friends as children back in Venezuela. They lost touch and each immigrated to the US. One day Aristides’ daughter said she made a new friend in school. It turned out to be Lorelen’s daughter. Aristides and Lorelen couldn’t believe over all the miles and years their paths had crossed again. Aristides was in the process of opening a restaurant and still needed a chef. Lorelen was the perfect candidate. Together they have created a restaurant spilling over with pride for their heritage and appreciation for their new home and community. Truly it is our gain to have Soto’s Kitchen\, Aristides\, and Lorelen in Jacksonville.  \nWe are thrilled to offer this Dinner Adventure featuring a wide variety of Venezuelan dishes from Soto’s Kitchen. If you’ve never been you are in for the treat of the year. If you are familiar with the food at Soto’s Kitchen you know what an incredible\, mouthwatering deal this is. \nSoto’s Kitchen\, Arepas \nMenu\nCourse One\nShredded Beef Tostones\, a sandwich of shredded beef with fried plantain slices for the “bread”\n \nCourse Two\nPernil (Pulled Pork) Arepa\, a corn patty split open and stuffed with meat. \n \nCourse Three\nChicken Cabimera\, a uniquely Venezuelan dish similar in concept to loaded fries. Arepas are cut into pieces and fried\, and topped with meats\, cheeses\, lettuce\, boiled egg\, sauces\n \nCourse Four\nShredded Beef Empanada\, a savory pastry stuffed with meat\, essential Latin-American street food\n \nCourse Five\nCheese Cachapa\, a slightly sweet\, corn pancake-like dish\, stuffed with mild white cheese\n \nCourse Six\nNutearepa\, a dessert arepa stuffed with nutella \nSoto’s Kitchen\, Cabimera \nSoto’s Kitchen\, Nutella Arepa \n*We utilize community style seating\n*Gratuity not included in price of ticket\n*Contact Lisa @JaxRestaurantReviews.com with any questions or concerns \n
