What happens when architecture becomes the inspiration for a contemporary tasting menu?
On December 19, Open Scene welcomes just fifteen guests to the historic André Smith Residence for Modern Mayā, a five-course dinner conceived by international chefs Juan Bochenski and Michael Schleyer.
The evening draws inspiration from the Maitland Art Center, founded in 1937 by artist and architect Jules André Smith. Its distinctive Mayan Revival architecture reinterprets Mesoamerican artistic traditions through geometric forms, sculptural reliefs, and an imaginative architectural vision.
Taking their cue from this remarkable setting, the chefs have created a menu exploring ingredients such as maize, cacao, achiote, pepita, and sour orange through contemporary culinary techniques.
This time, let us pamper you.
