Gunter and Tam co-authored, \u2018It\u2019s a Vibe\u2019 , a food and wine pairing experience.  Bringing flavors from Armando\u2019s Chinese Nicaraguense background and Jaton\u2019s professional wine pairings. The book was created to highlight the multi cultural flavors the SF Bay Area represents. Food and wine; for the Bay by the Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s be real; in the Bay Area, we hustle. \u2018It\u2019s a vibe\u2019 is filled with quick, minimal ingredients, and recipes any home cook, working mom, or bachelor can whip up in 15 mins. The most difficult decision you\u2019re left with is who you’re going to share the bottle of vino with (and if you don\u2019t share; we don\u2019t blame ya).  Each recipe is impeccably paired with a wine recommendation of some of the Bay Area\u2019s best winemakers of color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a food aficionado, Armando is currently working on several passion ventures such as Comidazo, a platform to highlight and incubate chefs of color by incorporating winemakers and musical artists. Along with Paladar, a food incubator in Los Angeles, where the culinary focus is Caribbean Asian with a conscience. By early 2023 he plans on launching a restaurant in New Jersey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wine lover for over 15 years, Jaton began his career blogging about delicious and affordable wines. Later starting his business; G&S Wines; where he consulted as a private buyer for clients and curated wine collections. He is a certified Sommelier accreditation from the International Culinary Center in Campbell, CA. Since then, he\u2019s written various wine books and has his own publishing company, Grapes and Sand.
His next project is to publish his newest wine book novel under his publishing company.
