Step into an evening of culture, cuisine, and conversation at Okan with Dialogue of Trans-Atlantic Flavors: Cuba. This immersive dining experience, led by Chef Bernard Bennett in collaboration with Penn Center, celebrates the richness of traditional Cuban cuisine while exploring the deeper stories behind each dish.
