At the crossroads of Latin American and Caribbean culture, Panama’s cuisine is a both familiar yet distinctive. So too is this personal menu by Chef Rossy Earle, a reflection of her Panamanian roots planted in Canadian soil. Tonight she shares a few dishes inspired by her favourites growing up, presented with the skill and consideration of a contemporary professional chef and food stylist.
“When I feel nostalgic about Panama, these are some of the things that I like to make. The smells coming from my kitchen and the flavours make me immediately think of home.”

Ceviche de Mariscos
Citrus & ale marinated fish and shellfish with onions, garlic, chilies, parsley, cilantro. Traditionally served in Panamá with soda crackers
Also available #vegetarian: Ceviche de Palmito & Coliflor (Hearts of Palm & Cauliflower Ceviche)
Arroz con Pollo
This traditional Panamanian chicken & rice gets its beautiful golden colour from the addition of achiote (annatto) to the sofrito base that the chicken is braised in. Tender rice, tomatoes, peppers, sweet peas, green olives and culantro round up the dish.
Also available #vegetarian: Arroz “Sin Pollo” pero con Más Vegetales (Rice without chicken but with more vegetables!)
Quesillo de Mango Mousse
It’s mango season! This is a light and airy version of a Latin American-style cheese cake flan. But instead of being baked, it’s whipped to mousse-like perfection and served on a brown butter Maria cookie crust and topped with mango caramel sauce.
