Using cheap and overlooked ingredients, they cook up scrumptious dishes that are famous within the slums. Their passion and resilience prove that good food need not be expensive. 

From waterfall pork to sea urchin rice and even grilled stuffed frogs with pork, a gastronomical adventure awaits you. The cooks will even take you on a tour of their lives in the hoods. So what are you waiting for?
