Rooted in Fire: Coronado Public Library Adventure with Pyet DeSpain, Next Level Chef Winner

“Every dish carries a story — of the land, the people, and the love that sustains them.” – Pyet DeSpain
As the season of harvest and gathering arrives, join us for an inspiring evening with Pyet DeSpain, winner of Gordon Ramsay’s Next Level Chef and author of the stunning debut cookbook, Rooted in Fire: a Celebration of Native American and Mexican Cooking.
Pyet will share how her Native American and Mexican heritage infuses every recipe with tradition, resilience, and deep respect for the earth. Through stories, flavors, and ancestral wisdom, she invites us to celebrate the ways food can connect us, honor our roots, and nourish both body and spirit.
