Spanglish: Recipes & Stories is Monti Carlo’s tribute to Puerto Rican cuisine, culture, and identity. The book features more than 65 recipes and stories shaped by Monti’s life between Puerto Rico and the mainland United States, blending memory, family, language, and food into one personal collection.

For this event, El Super Pan will prepare bites using recipes from Spanglish so guests can taste dishes directly inspired by the book.

Monti Carlo is a Puerto Rican cook, writer, and award-winning television host whose work spans Food Network, PBS, FYI, Netflix, and Roku. A James Beard Foundation advisor and two-time Telly Award winner, she has appeared on Cutthroat Kitchen, Supermarket Stakeout, and MasterChef, and she has created a digital community of more than one million followers. Her work blends storytelling, culture, and cuisine to celebrate Puerto Rican cooking and the evolving story of American food.

Monti now calls Atlanta home, making El Super Pan a fitting final stop for the Spanglish book tour!
