Those who joined us at our last Muhibbah Dinner were greeted with this beautiful poem at their seats by . It moved us so deeply that we wanted to share it with everyone. 🍐❤️

Bosc
i like melancholy
i like autumn leaves
painted over the asphalt
i like gray and concrete
i like the whiz of cyclists
slicking over wet
trolley tracks
i like stoic lips and staid
eyes affixed to the horizon
for an early sunset
in purple and sienna
i like when the wind
pulls the smoke from
my cigarette out of
the window while the
six o’clock news buzzes
to no attention be-
hind my ignorant ears
i like the walls
i like still shadows
i like my pears to
bruise over til soft
and sweet enough to
spread over toast,
to sprinkle them
generously with salt
and drizzle with honey
for no one
in particular

Yesterday we told you we were sharing our last meet the Muhibbah Dinner chef — but turns out we were keeping a little secret. 🤫

We have a surprise for you — of will be joining our fabulous chef line-up to provide dessert! 🎉

Here’s a little more about Chef Mardhory Santos-Cepeda:

Watching someone’s eyes light up when they try her pastries never gets old for her. Mardhory puts her entire life in each pastry that she makes pulling pieces from her childhood with her Grandmas in Brazil, the fancy culinary techniques she picked up in the fine dining scenes, and her love for foraging she picked at farm to table restaurants. Mardhory started baking when she was four years old; she played so much with dough and flour that her uncle suggested she go to culinary school. There, she fell deeper in love with the precision and technique it takes to make pastries. She still studies and learns about it today, striving for the perfect balance of flavors in a way that keeps her culture alive.

Mardhory does it all to see the smile on her guests’ faces, and she can’t wait to serve dessert at Muhibbah Dinner on Tuesday 3.25.25 at in support of . ❤️

We can’t say this enough, there are very few tickets left for our event, so if you want to join this once in a lifetime dinner click the link in our bio and reserve your spot! 🎟️
