Discover the flavors, stories, and traditions of the CHamoru through an intimate guided tasting.About this EventOn July 31st, Taste Society invites you to explore one of the Pacific's most storied and underrepresented culinary traditions through an evening of food, culture, storytelling, and connection.Join Taste Society as we journey into the lives of the indigenous people of Guam for an evening celebrating CHamoru food, culture, and hospitality.This isn't simply dinner - it's a guided cultural dining experience where every course tells a story.Throughout the evening, you'll enjoy thoughtfully prepared tasting portions inspired by the CHamoru's rich culinary traditions, paired with handcrafted cocktails and mocktails created in collaboration with Gasparilla Distillery. Between courses, you'll hear the stories behind the dishes, learn about CHamoru culture, and connect with fellow guests around a shared table.The CHamoru people have called the Mariana Islands home for over 3,500 years, and their food reflects it: bold, communal, and shaped by centuries of Spanish, Filipino, and Pacific influence layered over ancient island tradition. Food here isn't an afterthought to celebration - it's the center of it, built around the same spirit of inafa'maolek, or community harmony, that defines CHamoru culture.Whether you've traveled to Guam or the Mariana Islands, dream of visiting one day, or simply enjoy discovering new cuisines, this evening invites you to experience a culture through its food.AgendaFirst Dish - Chicken KelaguenInfo: Rotisserie chicken finished mixed and tossed with fresh lemon juice, coconut flakes, and green onion — kelaguen is CHamoru cooking at its most vibrant. Served alongside titiyas, a soft handmade flatbread built for scooping, this tasting portion captures the citrus, char, and coconut that define Guam's table.Second Dish - Shrimp Kelaguen Info: Fresh shrimp cured raw-style in lemon juice, delicate and briny, layered with coconut and green onion. Paired with achiote-stained red rice with bacon bits, this dish highlights the coastal side of Guam's table.Dessert - Latiya Info: Soft sponge cake layered with silky vanilla custard, finished with a whisper of cinnamon — cool, creamy, and impossible to stop at one bite. A beloved CHamoru dessert that brings the perfect sweet finish to a table full of bold, citrus-bright flavors. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/tampa/taste-society-chamoru/100001993874608628 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: 18+ - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Gasparilla Distillery & Cocktail Bar - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 59.34, max: 116.69, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Tampa - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: Gasparilla Distillery & Cocktail Bar - **lat**: 27.9583122 - **long**: -82.4352991 - **full address**: Gasparilla Distillery & Cocktail Bar, 2102 East 4th Avenue, Tampa, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Taste Society: CHamoru - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/728070abf9b9ad19d6a35e55d1d0913e331d6d1365abcd253f118f1ca6f67ca0-rimg-w1080-h1350-dc2e5e17-gmir.jpg?v=1783998678 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Taste Society: CHamoru being held? - **A:** Taste Society: CHamoru takes place on Fri, 31 Jul, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Fri, 31 Jul, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Gasparilla Distillery & Cocktail Bar, 2102 East 4th Avenue, Tampa, United States. - **Q**: Is there an age restriction for Taste Society: CHamoru? - **A:** Taste Society: CHamoru is strictly for guests aged 18 and above.
