'CROPS OF OPPRESSION" LECTURE & DEGUSTATION DINNER, November 12, 2016, Chef Jessie's at Rockwell

CHOP's Last Get-Together for 2016

"Crops of Oppression" Lecture by Ige Ramos, and Degustation Dinner by Chef Jessie Sincioco at her Rockwell Cub Restaurant.

An evening full of fun, food, learning, and love.

Heartfelt Kudos and thanks to our Generalissima Pia Lim-Castillo for organizing and orchestrating this very successful last event of the year for CHOP. 

Our thanks also to our incoming President, Ige Ramos, for an insightful and entertaining lecture, and to Chef Jessie, for continuing the yearly tradition of cooking for our year-end banquets. CHOP is blessed, indeed. 

Finally, we say a big thank you to all of you who came to share this precious evening with the CHOP family!

[As you will see from the photos, Ige came appropriately costumed for his lecture theme, complete with Salakot and custom-made leather Bakya (wooden sandals).]
