The Future of Diversity Guest Chef Program

Founded in 2021 by La Spiga head chef and co-owner Sabrina Tinsley, the Future of Diversity Guest Chef Program is a pop-up series designed to support and promote emerging chefs in the community. The program allows chefs to showcase their signature dishes in a 3-5 course meal, available for in-restaurant dining. To date, the program has featured a variety of talented chefs who are able to utilize La Spiga’s kitchen space, sell their products, and connect to like-minded foodies who share a passion for global cuisine through quarterly events.

“I’ve always had a passion for different cultures, and I love meeting new chefs — learning about what they are doing in the community and seeing how they are showcasing their delicious foods,” says Sabrina, “This program is one of the ways I am choosing to connect with our BIPOC community, bringing us closer together, and helping chefs in the beginning stages of their concepts gain additional exposure.”
