Breakfast Goes Global

Sun | Sep 08, 2024 | 10A–12P PT

Teacher Camila Loew

Are you in a breakfast rut? Tired of spending precious weekend time standing in line for mediocre $18 mimosas? Camila Loew, international breakfast enthusiast, is here to help! She will shake up your morning routine with flavors from Turkey, India and Japan.

Here’s what Camila has to say about the menu:

Classic Turkish Menemen makes a great brunch dish. It shares similarities with the more well known shakshuka, but with a brighter, fresher sauce, and eggs that are stirred in rather than cooked on top. Then there’s the Bombay Omelet. The simple combination of eggs and spinach is made exceptional by a spice blend that will transport us far away as we taste it...

The first time I had Tamago Kake Gohan in Japan, it was described as "Rice with Egg Sauce" and sounded great to me! Little did I know the "sauce" was to be made by me right in the bowl! I have loved it ever since. Natto with Avocado is for the die-hard Japanese food and fermentation fans. Its intense flavor and texture are complemented and mellowed by the avocado here.

Our class will conclude with Sunday brunch or lunch on your table, ready to share with family and friends.

In addition to leading culinary tours, Camila helps people to achieve better health through food, sharing her love for the Mediterranean region and its cuisines.

Camila’s cooking style is inspired by fresh produce and the change of seasons, but above all, by people and the daily magical act of gathering around the table to share a meal. When she’s not teaching, at the market, in the kitchen or at the table, Camila enjoys drinking tea, practicing yoga, hiking in the Collserola hills, and reading.

Camila feels most comfortable in front of a group teaching, usually something to do with translating culture through food.
