  • Roots & Routes: A Celebration of Immigrant Flavors

    The kitchen has always been a place where borders dissolve—where ingredients, traditions, and techniques blend into something new yet deeply familiar. This collaborative dinner, hosted by 2025 James Beard semifinalist Ope Amosu at ChopnBlok, invites fellow “Best Chef: Texas” Houston semifinalists Evelyn Garcia & Henry Lu (Jun) and Emmanuel Chavez (Tatemo) to explore the boundless connections between culture and cuisine. Together, these four chefs —each with immigrant roots—craft a menu that bridges the past and present, honoring the dishes of their ancestors while pushing culinary traditions forward. From West Africa to North and Central America to China and beyond, this dinner is a tribute to the flavors, techniques, and narratives that shape Houston’s vibrant dining scene and the immigrant experience as a whole. In a time when conversations about immigration are often fraught, this dinner reminds us of one simple truth: food unites us all.

    Food is excellent and service is excellent. Far better than several other new places we tried recently. This one is going to be one of our go-to places. Loved it.

    Food and service were excellent, as always. My only complaint is the extremely loud dining room. The patio was lovely, though. I can’t recommend the Motherland dish highly enough.

    Mondays are pretty loud and busy but it was nice. I’ve had better experiences on less busy days. But I understand the rush!
