Nidya Soto| Colombia
Chef Nidya is from the Eastern Plains region of Colombia, but has lived in Medellin, Antioquia, for more than half of her life.
“The table unites families.” This is one of the most important projects of her life, accompanied by her husband and two children. Her Colombian culture and culinary roots, acquired through internal migration within her own country, have allowed her extraordinary experiences around the table. The Bandeja Paisa, with all the ingredients, the Tolima tamale, yuca bread, and the traditional salpicón with cheese, among others, are some of her favorite dishes when serving a table. We’re excited to feature her cooking here at Feast for the first time!

Vicky Liao| Taiwan
Chef Vicky is excited to share Taiwanese flavors with Spokane, with flavorful dishes like salt and basil chicken and savory beef noodle soup. She also serves delicious Asian style pastries!

Seenam & Lounjin| Kurdistan
Seenam and Lounjin, a sister duo, are sharing the taste of their heritage through authentic Kurdish cuisine made from cherished family recipes. Born in Kurdistan, they fled the hardships of war and came to the United States with resilience, hope, and a dream for a better future. While pursuing careers as doctors, they're serving up flavors of home here at Feast. Each plate tells a story of survival and celebrates the community they now call home.
