Try plantain- and rice-based recipes from local Puerto Rican food truck business Las Virellas. We’ll learn about African influence in Latin American and Caribbean cuisines and hear from the owners about their professional journey starting a business based on their passion for food and culture.

This event is presented by the Lubar Entrepreneurship Center’s Diverse Ideas talk series, in collaboration with the Center for Latin American & Caribbean Studies, Department of African and African Diaspora Studies, and Roberto Hernandez Center.
