Bold Bites In Boston: Chef Serpa's Food Adds Bright Latin Flavors To New England Classics
Flash forward to today, Serpa has led in Boston's culinary scene for over 15 years. Especially proud of his team—a family in its own right— he believes he has built a bridge between cultures. On the one hand, he is so proud to create and serve classic New England fare in Boston, a city that takes pride in its coastal cuisine, and yet, he and his team do so while also shining a light on the food of their heritage; it is food that nourished them as children but was only found around their tables at home. Now, those flavors that swirled around his father's and his Abuelo's kitchen are front and center at Boston's Little Whale Oyster Bar, Select Oyster Bar, and Atlantico. And they are not just highlighted during National Hispanic Heritage Month; they are dishes and people Serpa and his team celebrate every single day.
