Mexico en la Piel
Vol. 3
A Dinner Series
Presented by Chef Fernando Grassi Cueto
Special Collaboration: French-Mexican Fusion
For this installment, Chef Fernando collaborates with guest Chef Bjorn Jacobse from Restaurant Aubergine.
A Lyon native immersed in French gastronomy throughout his upbringing, Chef Bjorn relocated to South Minneapolis early in life, embarking on his professional culinary path at seventeen inside Cafe Maude before contributing to multiple Twin Cities landmarks. At twenty-five, he moved to Montreal to cook at prestigious Joe Beef alongside master Canadian talents David McMillan, Fred Morin, Marc-Olivier Frappier, and Ariel Schor. Upon returning to Minnesota, he refined his craft under Chef Gavin Kaysen at Bellecour, eventually venturing to Portland in 2018 to prepare dishes at acclaimed establishments such as Le Pigeon and Cafe Olli while conceptualizing Aubergine. Having reestablished roots locally with his family, Chef Bjorn delivers an exemplary degree of technical precision to the regional culinary scene.
Together, both chefs present an exclusive gathering commemorating an early Día de los Muertos observance. Rooted in heritage and shaped by modern technique, this collaboration merges expressive regional Mexican elements with classical French culinary discipline.
If you miss this evening, don’t worry México en la Piel is the beginning of a series, with future dinners and potential surprise guest collaborations to come.
