Miguel Aguilar / Wynwood Kitchen & Bar

Five years after opening, Wynwood mainstay Wynwood Kitchen + Bar has finally launched its brunch. Offered every weekend, the menu is inspired by the executive chef’s Miguel Aguilar home country of Venezuela. On the menu you can find dishes like tostadas and sweet corn pancake that can all be paired with special Cusqueña beers. The beer company holds a special place in Aguilar’s heart since he got to travel to their factories in Peru last August to learn all about how they were made and try some of Peru’s best cuisine. The weeklong trip – that Chat Chow TV was luckily a part of – took a group of journalists and chefs through Peru from the seaside city of Lima to the mountains of Machu Picchu. Chefs from across the country demonstrated different techniques, flavors and ingredients that the group had never experienced before. And everyone got to learn how to properly pair Cusqueña beer with all of their favorite dishes, from sweet to savory and everything in between. Aguilar even added a special ceviche to the new brunch menu inspired by the trip. Curious what Miguel Aguilar favorite beer is? Or what culinary tips he learned in Peru?
