This May, Taste of Great Oak Manor welcomes Chef of Anju in Washington, DC for "A Journey Through Korea" — an immersive culinary experience shaped by bold flavor, cultural storytelling, and unforgettable moments at the table.
A four-time James Beard Foundation Award semifinalist, Food & Wine’s 2021 Best New Chef, and the RAMMY 2024 Chef of the Year, Chef Barreto is known for his vibrant, modern approach to Korean cuisine — where fermentation, spice, and balance come together in ways that feel both deeply rooted and completely fresh.
Over the course of the weekend, you’ll experience: ✨ Multi-course collaborative meals
✨ Live cooking demonstrations
✨ Tastings that explore layers of Korean flavor
✨ Fireside conversations with the chef
✨ And the kind of connection that only happens when great food meets the right setting
Set along the Chesapeake Bay, this is your chance to slow down, savor something new, and turn a weekend into a true getaway.
📍 May 15–17, 2026
💫 $500 per person (event activity fee; rooms sold separately)
Come for the food. Stay for the experience. Leave with a story!
