There’s a rebroadcast of a 2016 Fresh Air interview with Anthony Bordain on WBHM now. He had a painterly way with words. A true storyteller. Love listening to him talk about food, travel, and more. There is a new documentary about him out now. #anthonybourdain #chef #writer

The duck empanada featured by Sol Y Luna on Sunday’s C&C was wonderful. And it went so well with the beer, wine, and cocktails that were the featured crafts of our 24th year. 😋

BIG thanks to everyone who came out to our 2021 Reserved Edition. It may have been smaller than our usual footprint, but it was still packed with amazing local flavor. And we are already looking forward to celebrating our 25th year bigger and better!

Sol Y Luna was one of the first supporters of Corks & Chefs when we launched at Magic City Art Connection 24 years ago. The late Chef Guillermo Castro was a huge champion of the tasting event. ❤️ We miss him mucho. He was so generous in spirit and continually came from a place of YES. The food was always delicious, of course. Jorge Castro continued that tradition at their other local hot spot, @cantina_tortilla_grill.

We are so glad that Sol y Luna is making a comeback in Bham. And we’re even more excited their food will be joining us at C&C’s 24th year! Just look at their amazing plates. 😋😋😋

“Working with copper feels like a suspended liquid, flowing and working with me to take on the shape that I envision. Using natural forms and making functional artwork brings nature into the home. Inspired by my time hiking the Appalachian Trail and my own experiences in nature, I love having the opportunity to explore my art and connect people back to the Earth. With a background in fine arts and growing up surrounded by historic American silver, my passion for metalsmithing was nurtured by master metalsmith Terry Talley. Using the purest available metals and naturally-shed antler sourced in the USA, I start with an idea and feel it out as I work the metal, allowing opportunities to arise as they will–serendipity leading me on the journey!”
