32. at Home Sobremesa - a podcast by Dani Bao

Sobremesa is back and this time we're bringing it home — home can be a house, a person, a song, a movie, a scent, a flavor. It's more of a feeling than a place, no?
Since planning this trip back to Peru, where I grew up, I started to think about this idea of home and while Peru and Lima do feel like home at times, its more the memories I associate with growing up in such a yummy country that make me feel at home. It goes back to food —the spices, the local ingredients, the culinary fusion, and of course, the sobremesa.
Sebas, the creator behind Sastre and a friend who I trust tremendously, asked to collaborate on a Chevere Means Cool Sobremesa hosted at Departamento Sastre and without thinking twice, I said yes. We asked ⁠Arianne Marie⁠ to join us and help curate the menu, table setting, and overall dinner, and her creative vision made this dinner all the more special. Thank you Sebas and Ari, you're both rockstars and a pleasure to create with :)
For this Sobremesa, we gathered Peruvian creators to enjoy a family-style dinner, our interpretation of a home cooked meal, followed by intimate conversations between new and old friends. Curated by Arianne Marie and Sebas, and hosted at the beautiful Departamento Sastre, I can't think of a better way to feel at home.
I hope you enjoy the candid conversation that naturally occurred at the Sobremesa between some of the most inspiring people I've met in Lima —from photographers, artists, directors, fashion designers, and more, they all shared raw reflections of what it means to be a creator and what it means to feel at home. This second Sobremesa felt personal, intimate, and expansive, all at once. Thank you to our wonderful guests:
