This week’s food guests are Tamy Rofe and Felipe Donnelly, husband and wife team behind beloved Colonia Verde in Fort Greene and newly opened tacos.com/">Disco Tacos in Williamsburg. 

Felipe, a Colombian chef who spent his childhood throughout Spain, Brazil and Mexico, and Tamy, a sommelier, worked for award-winning global advertising agencies for more than a decade, before they began to host weekly dinner parties in their apartment. The dinner series quickly grew in popularity and evolved into pop-ups, and then their first restaurant in Soho, Comodo. In 2014, the restaurateurs opened James Beard award-nominated Colonia Verde, the Latin American restaurant in Fort Greene known for its sold-out Sunday Asado backyard party series featuring guest chefs from around the world. The team also operates Comparti, a full-service catering company, and Casa by Colonia Verde, a pantry and marketplace of curated prepared foods, fresh produce, home goods, wine and more.

In Summer of 2020, they wanted to bring moments of joy during a stressful time and opened Disco Tacos, a food truck with disco music and vibrant neon colors. One year later after countless tacos served all over New York, the food truck transitioned to a full service restaurant in the heart of Williamsburg, which just opened a few weeks ago. 

We got back into our archives with a performance from Big Bliss.
