We found restaurateur/chef Lily Wen of the Taromak tribe, from the Kindoor mountains on the east coast of Taiwan, in an Eater article that showcases how she uses food as a way to help people reconnect to her heritage.
“Colonization almost destroyed my culture,” Wen says. “Food is our last line of connection.”
"Most of that work is through food. Dawana is the Taromak’s only restaurant dedicated to indigenous cuisine. The seating is entirely outdoors, with handcrafted furniture made from driftwood. It seats up to 30 people, and Wen cooks and feeds visiting tourists and private parties, most of whom hear about her unique concept through word of mouth."
We are honored that she is sharing her traditions and dishes with us.
