When Chef Yara Herrera of
@hellbendernyc met Chef Maycoll Calderon at
@cuna.nyc ’s opening party, we had a feeling it wouldn’t be the last time they shared a kitchen. Now, for one night only, Hellbender meets Cuna. 💥
We’re bringing Queens to the East Village for a collaborative dinner rooted in Mexican tradition, shaped by New York, and driven by seasonal ingredients and shared creativity. Chef Yara Herrera (
@yaraherrerayara ), the force behind Hellbender’s bold, Mexican-American cooking, joins Chef Maycoll Calderón (
@maycollc ) for a five-course menu that honors heritage with a fresh, ingredient-driven perspective.
Expect bright, expressive flavors, from oysters with jalapeño & yuzu kosho to al pastor pork ribs and a nostalgic gansito to finish—all designed exclusively for the evening.
