Chef Gabriela Chamorro, Girl and the Goose

A culinary trend we see rising is the embrace and appreciation of going back to the roots. For Chef Gabriela Chamorro of Girl and the Goose, those roots come alive through her Grilled Sweet Chilli Shrimp with Yoltamal, a dish that brings together ancestral flavours, personal memories, and one unmistakable feeling: home.

Using premium tiger prawns supplied by Bidfood, the dish reflects how thoughtfully selected ingredients can help chefs preserve tradition while expressing it in their own way.

For Chef Gabriela Chamorro, going back to her roots tastes like home. ❤️

Grilled Sweet Chilli Shrimp with Yoltamal

A dish grounded in Latin culinary tradition

Her Grilled Sweet Chilli Shrimp with Yoltamal brings together ancestral flavours, comforting memories, and premium tiger prawns to create a dish grounded in Latin culinary tradition.

Why going back to the roots matters

Across kitchens in the region, more chefs are looking to where they came from for inspiration. It is a trend built on authenticity, where family recipes, childhood tastes, and regional traditions shape menus that feel personal rather than trend driven.

For a dish like this, ingredient quality does the quiet work. Premium tiger prawns hold up beautifully on the grill, giving the chef a dependable canvas to build tradition on, without losing the flavours that make it feel like home.
