Selling Colombian Food Out Of A Bedroom Window In Brooklyn
Vložit
- čas přidán 5. 10. 2020
- Through her project La TropiKitchen, Stephanie Bonnin makes handcrafted Colombian food and sells it from her apartment in Bushwick, Brooklyn. Before COVID-19, Stephanie hosted pop-ups and dinner parties, but since the start of the pandemic, she's sold her arepas, enyucados, bollos, pasteles, and more directly from her bedroom window. Stephanie travels throughout Colombia to learn from local women about her country's varying culinary histories, from the Andes to the Amazon to major cities, then she takes this knowledge back to New York.

When I was a kid in Brooklyn there was a Puerto Rican lady who who sold homemade meals out of her apartment. No one said anything to the authorities about it. Everyone from the neighborhood (which was mostly Italian) loved her cooking. When I left New York she was still doing it. That was forty years ago.
A lot of black families do this too
@@deneshiaash876 My friend does it too and she’s only 18. She’s a hustler
@Buferin El mejor why?
@Buferin El mejor why the hate ?she is not selling drugs or hurting ppl .if you don’t like it then don’t buy very simple 👍
@Buferin El mejor lmbooo you so silly you wanted to keep it all to yourself you funny as shit
This girl is a hustler and she's grinding to the top of her game. Good on her and wish her a most successful future in the industry.
I have a lil crush on her
Shes also an animal abuser with no good license
@@Mariekr49 lol how?
Reporting her to health bureau
Shes seen holding a chicken by its neck aive
RIP to Abuelita. Our grandmother’s prayers still cover us🙏🏾 we are a manifestation of our elders prayers, and Stephanie embodies this 100% Beautiful✨
Me too. My dad is from Barranquilla. After my abuelita passed my family hasn't been the same. ❤
She's my type of people!!! I love her fierceness, fearlessness, dexterity, authenticity, passion, drive!
Columbian ladies are wild af.
So many beautiful, talented, smart, creative women in this video that showed her the way too. She's something special for sure.
This woman is amazing and I love her personality . She 100% deserves her own show
Beautiful! this could be a 40 min documentary with more about her research in Colombia. Descanse en paz abuela Aurelia.
Munchies should give her a whole series!
Totally, 13 mins was not enough. Yo, mama del Columbia! I love to dance, eat and I'm not trying to get hitched. Let's do this. Call me lmao
True
❤️❤️❤️
Amén ❤️🙏🏻
Just FYI, she's a rockstar here in Colombia.
That's awesome!!! She's super fierce!!!
Doubt
Selling food illegally and VICE acts like it's special
@@Snarf_Le_Wombat Is subsistence and she does it with love, You dont know that...
donde? jamas habia oido de ella hasta ahora, y llevo trabajando de chef 15 años.
She's a hardworking woman. I admire and respect her fearless character and wish her a bright and happy future. May her grandma rest in peace.
She is the reason NYC will survive and thrive. She is part of the real New York City. Bless her. I wish I can eat her food, medicine for the heart and mind.
not if all the rich people leave
@@Chris-eo1bp Well, that guy Jerry better put his money where his mouth is....and his friends
hell yea!!
She is from another country doing ghetto things, and Brooklyn is not the real NYC either, only Manhattan is.
@@Thebrothaisback Okay...
Hearing abuelita has passed from COVID was so sad, I started crying... may she Rest In Peace knowing she brought tons of people joy from her cooking ❤️
was not the covid....
@@thesapphirem5469 she literally said "abuelita passed from COVID" @5:00
Me too...
Indeed. Same here lost abuelita to Covid. :(
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Her presentation is 5 star. I got hungry watching her food
I prefer mac Donald's
Thats 100 but her food doesnt look that good but her prestation is everthing
@@Donlightyearso basically her food looks good💀
I agree that food sure don’t look like homemade it’s like a restaurant
Where is she located? I hope to visit NYC ans visit her location she sure is an empowering female
Her food is healing, I can tell. This is legit making me want to start my business.
Do it!
Do it if you’re located in Seattle I’m definitely buying.
Do it, sis!
Do it
Start it and buy your fresh farmed grown veggies from me, an upstart market garden farm. DMV area
I dunno why, but this woman Stephanie Bonnin is restoring my faith in the world today. There's lots of news about horrible people doing horrible things today. But there's this video of a woman doing a lot, working hard, cooking beautiful food, and for the right reasons. Thank you.
I bet there's tons of good stuff going on, but it's not shown. Only tragidies make headlines
Seriously I learned so much about Colombia in these 13 minutes. She should have her own documentary to educate people.
I’m not even Colombian and this almost brought me to tears by how passionate she is, you can tell. I also love to cook so you just know when someone just wants to make someone happy with food.
R I P To The Elder Lady 🙏🏽🕊🙏🏽🕊🕊
This could be a Netflix special. Easily. Love it.
For sure
Maybe
For everyone thinking that this video is going to get her evicted or shut down, FALSE. Stephanie moved last month to Europe to attend another renowned culinary school to further hone her skills.
What she's doing is typical in Colombia, many of our citizens make and sell food from home. I'm not saying that one way is right or wrong, I'm just pointing out that she's making Colombian food accessible in a culturally competent way. The people complaining are the same ones who would spend $5k on a trip to India but only eat at their hotel's buffet because the street food is "dirty". We all have different acceptable levels of risk and as a Colombian who has bought food from Stephanie before, I don't regret any of those tamales one bit!
Further proof that she’s doing for the love of food and to build her skills. That’s probably why she did this video. Also she’s barely even cooking in her kitchen. Looks like she’s doing it mostly at the community kitchen and just reheating and prepping at her house. No different than picking up home made from from your parents house.
Cierto. Y queremos segunda parte Vice.
I don't think anyone's thinking that
So she did get shut down lol
They obviously never been behind the scenes of some restaurants.
They wouldn't eat out again
Her place might be way better in terms of hygiene
For some reason, this woman who sells food from her bedroom, the food came out looking like it is from a high end restaurant. Not just looking delicious but plated beautifully. Wow!
If Stephanie called me Papi Chulo, you know I’m coming back everyday for Lunch!
😂🙏🏻
she fine too
🤣
Met her while interning a while back. So driven, so kind, and she let me borrow her cooking books :-)
@Sarah Wilson she pays her taxes just like you. she contributes to her community. what exactly did she do?
Look at her recent comment, she just hates Colombians, it seems. Qué triste jaja
@Sarah Wilson What an unnecessary comment from a racist, small-minded individual. Check your privilege Karen.
@Sarah Wilson youre the type of person to call the police on a child for selling water bottles just to go to Disney
Karen Wilson is gone 😂😂😂😂
I respect this woman. This is how I feel about real traditional Haitian food.
@Welcome's House Ma'am I agree
I'm Haitian American and now learning to cook authentic Haitian food.. Delicious but takes along time lol
@@FaithandNova Are you both your parents Haitian?
@@FaithandNova rightt?!? haitian food is soo delicious but the preparation is so long l
Love haitian food
She's living her best life and that is so admirable
She passed from covid
@@yogaqueen1527 She didnt.
This was SO inspiring she’s a true boss! I’m Congolese and unfortunately a lot of slaves were taken from our coast to South America and the Caribbean islands. We still cook a LOT of different dishes in leaves so that really resonated with me. ❤️
Agreed smart strong woman with business savvy.
And guess what? Try the whole "You owe us reparations for slavery" and you'll see what kind of reparations you will get down there hahaha
Most of Africa "traditional cooking " is done in leaves. We cut off a banana stem and place the leaves over a hot fire ( too soften them ) and the leaves is now a vessel for cooking pastel in. The same thing in Mexicano culture with tamales .
Lots of food traditions around the world are rooted in Africa...
I have to say this chef is a very accomplished woman. She takes care of herself and her dreams. I believe the lesson to learn here is you can do anything you set your mind into.
People can do anything they set their minds to is a true statement, however ppl set their minds to the wrong things and wonder why it's not fulfilling. I feel its more about aligning with your true self, being authentic and following your heart. I can set mind to doing my Taxes yet it doesn't make me get out the bed in the morning.
I can't wait to see her on Chef's Table. QUE VIVAN LOS LATINOS!!!
CHEF’S TABLE IS AMAZING!!!!! I’ve watched all the episodes twice.
I love that show
Omggggg is she going to be on chefs table 👀 ?
@@mayrar2321 No, but I see a potential future season highlighting wonderful chefs who cook from home and cook as good as her. @netflix #chefstable
We have the best food in my opinion
"You name it, we have it, and if I dont I'll figure it out!"
🗣This Girl👆Is Drop Dead Gorgeous☺️
Something about this is different! Passion, Love, and Joy meets Food in community.
I can honestly say, without any doubt, that was the best video Munchies has put out in years.
Rip to the beautiful lady who's food is still bringing joy to the world.
Yeah that broke my heart hearing that. RIP señora.
What? Who died?
@@PITPOTSMEY the older lady who was teaching her the recipes and how to cook the food the authentic Columbian way. I think they say She passed of covid.
@Stephanie Barresi I know she was so selfless.
The way the cook laid on her was inspiring on how love and connection is the highest form of humility and respect for your friends and family.
God bless her soul.
Que orgullo ver la berraquera de la mujer Colombiana, más aún saliendo del elemento de lo que se considera "típico" en el exterior. LA AMÉ. Muchas bendiciones
I’m from Texas I’m Mexican American and I believe that no one should forget or be embarrassed by there culture I’m glad that you love your culture I also love mines. Let’s pray that this pandemic ends so me and my wife can go to Brooklyn and try your Colombian foods.
Any woman who does old school cooking and takes it this serious down to the spices , the process, and ingredients u know the food gonna be delicious!! That tamale is huge and looks super tasty! Keep doing ur thing girl I wish her nothing but success!
This reminds me of a book called Like Water For Chocolate by Laura Esquivel. Hispanic culture is so vibrant, colorful, passionate, even aromatic if i dare say so myself. This woman can perfectly fit in that book.
jane29jeng I seen the movie, lol.
Where in the hell that E in "tamale" came from? TAMAL TAMAL TAMAL TAMAL
Dated a woman from Colombia. One of the best cooks I've ever met. To the point we compete with dishes lol A lot of women nowadays don't even know how to cook. All they know how to do is look cute for Instagram & spend money smh
Steaming rice in banana leaves on the grill is master level. Everything looks so vibrant and tasty. Wow!
Pretty common in southeast Asia specifically Malaysia and Indonesia
Such an uplifting video, this woman knows her food, every bit of her heart goes into her business. I've never had columbian food before but it looks so GOOD!
Love what you say, but please is Colombia not Columbia!!!
This makes me so proud to be Colombian!!
man that whole segment with her grandma and then learning she died of covid was sad as hell
she didn't say that was her grandmother. it most likely wasn't
@Serena Rios Are you thinking what I'm thinking? Because I don't wanna be that guy x) Seeing how grandma was living rather secluded and Stephanie being from NY ya know...
@@favelado3408 literal dijo abuela en el video lol
@@boogbear17 eso no quiere decir que fuera su abuela, alguna gente les dice abuelos a todos los viejos
That's not her grandma, and yes she probably gave the grandma covid but who cares when she is giving knowledge$$ and then she moves to Europe 😂
Also for the record 96% of that food is Native to the Americas...not sure wtf she's talking about
This is who we the people need feeding us not McDonald’s or bk.
Meh people like their crappy food 🤷🏻♀️
I totally agree with you
Lol! We would all be tiny if we ate food this earthly and natural.
Amen!
Mm but matdonalds so good
Colombia is such a rich country in every single level , and I am so happy to see Colombian gastronomy being exposed beside bandeja paisa and ajiaco . Our indigenous roots are so wise and beautiful
Que orgullo de mujer, representas todo lo bonito de la costa y Colombia, buena actitud, echada pa'lante, guerrera y pilosa. Un gran abrazo y muchas bendiciones.
When she said her grandma passed from Covid that hithard
Classic sob story
COVID traveled from newyork to poor grandma house ...
@@suneelkumar5932 So you think there is no Covid already in Colombia?
too hard
Covid ain't real man, my uncle died of a heart problem and they wrote it off as covid. It's just a hugs bad flu going around and the government is using fear to control. The government tells us 'not to worry and thats it's under control'
I aspire to be a women like her. Genuine, smart, strong-willed, talented, educated, the list goes on!
*GO REACH YOUR DREAMS!* 😊
Wasn't aware you could get a home cooking license. Going to look into this for my own foods. Her food looks superb. !
I love this! She deserves her own restaurant. I’m saving this for the next time I’m in NY!
She’s in Europe now. Save the restaurant name and see if she’s back before your trip
This was so fulfilling to watch. As a Brooklynite, I’m proud. As a Caribbean-American I am proud. As a woman I am proud.
@cinema tv that too. There’s a ton about her and she’s doing to be proud of
Yes this is something to be proud of the culture and the food looks amazing
Cual es la direccion para ir?
@Noor Hussain girl stop, I bet you super cute too! go off queen
for me as a person eating potato chips while watching this I'm also proud
She is the true definition of You can make a living and survive anywhere. We all Gotta start from somewhere! She’s amazing 🥰🌈✊🏿❤️😘💯😭✨

Exactly
Wow hats off to her! It so hard being a creative person whether that be with food or some other art and being passionate about it then pursuing that creative thing full time. Yes you can be fulfilled abs make lots of money as a doctor or lawyer but not everyone wants that. It takes a lot of guts, hard work and talent to go after a career that’s not certain. She’s an inspiration! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The passion and emotion that i saw today, she has found her purpose.. and nothing can beat it
Such a passionate and hardworking woman. Colombian culture is so diverse and beautiful, Colombians are of many races but they unite as one, and they're so proud of their culture. Loved this episode.
Yep, a ton of countries are the same :)

@Veer Mistry My son is the owner of Eat Clean Bro.
LOL
just another way exploitation.. all those food deliverys pay people a low income and get rich themself.. 15 mio dollar company haha
@@cheryldemarco889 Then why did I read an article saying that the owner of eat clean bro started in "a friend's kitchen" 🤔
@@Azuramoon66 he lived with his mom the early years..so he did technically start cooking there.
In love with her passion!! Incredible woman 💓
Damm. We need more passionate chef like her. She have such a beautiful soul. She is amazing. I really want to try some of her dishes. Keep it up girl.
I was there last September and the food is very very similar to what we have in Ghana 🇬🇭. The way the elderly lady processes the cassava is the same way it’s done in Ghana 🇬🇭. It truly felt like home as everything felt so so familiar
Glad to know from an African how their food flavors and techniques can still be found in the Latin American cuisine. I'm from Puerto Rico and many of what she cooked look similar to some of our plates as well.
Colombian cuisine is a mixture of many different cultures including west african. You're not that far off Aseye.
Ahhh that’s why I love it so much! I’m Ghanaian as well and I had Colombian food, I feel in love and even told my friend that their food reminds me of Ghanaian cuisine a little
It reminds me of Home! 🇵🇷
From the Philippines, our old folks cook the same way and processes the root crops the same way. People all over the world, we are one.
I absolutely love this story! You can see the love and truth in her eyes. ❤️
All over this country, people make food to sell right out of their homes and serve their respective neighborhoods. The people complaining, they have never been poor. Good food will satisfy the soul. I would love to try everything on the menu. Love her, even though we have never met.
Yeaah pounded yam and ground cassava used so much in west africa and even uganda.and banana leave to make moi moi a kind of bean patty made with tomatoe paste and crawfish,spices
We're all so connected some way or another, but yet, there's so much racism and hatred among mankind smh
Yesss🇳🇬
Well every indigenious people cook whats product to their environment millions of years ago. West africans always cooked with leaves. Not like they had cell phones back then to call someone to say "Hey! What should i boil my ground cassava with? Ahh banana leaves! Great idea Maria! I'll call the neighbors!".
Just know that in the beginning God started with Africa before any other nations. Thats why we call her mama Africa. Every natural thing started in Africa. Every amazing wonder started in Africa love.
@Bella T.T who said they don't want to acknowledge, the black diaspora in Colombia is huge, without black people Colombia wouldn't be what it is.
I love this story & the fact that someone found it important enough to film & bring this story to us...Thank You. What a role model for women of any culture. She using what she knows & still she's learning & she said if she doesn't know how to make something she'll figure it out & she's made business & at the same time passing on her Colombian traditions. I Love it😆
Me siento orgulloso de ser colombiano, con la certeza de que siempre habrán personas con la voluntad de poner en alto nuestro país. Stephanie es un ejemplo de la calidez humana y riqueza tanto cultural como gastronómica que nos caracteriza. Desearle siempre éxitos y bendiciones. Un saludo y un abrazo para todos los colombianos.
this is the most soulful and most passionate video I have ever seen on youtube...wow ! Bless her soul. I will visit next time I go to new york
When she said her grandma passed away my heart broke 💔 🙁
Dag I wanna go right away, but she's not here. She'll be back in Spring. I'll be ready. BTW RIP to her abuela.
Same. I was like I know what lunch is going to be tomorrow! Oh well, something to look forward to!
RIP, abuela 🙏🏿
Just hearing her speak and watching put so much love and culture into her food made me tear up so much cuz it reminds me of 🇨🇴. I may not be born there but I am so proud to have blood from there que amor tu eres y que dios te bebdiga siempre muñeca.
I’m so proud of her. She’s so strong and hustling with all that she could. I hope she can open her own restaurant in the city because she’s such a hard worker serving amazing food! ❤️💕
Stories like that is what New York is to me, as someone watching it from abroad. People trying to survive and just doing what they need to. In the best possible way. And when she said Soy Sauce on steroids, it sounded like Soy Sauce on asteroids, and that is the most adorable thing.
She is a badass - amazing. This shows how immigrants add to the fabric of American society.
By undercutting legitimate businesses and devaluing labor? This happens alot in the construction and landscaping industries as well. Companies without licences or insurance driving down the cost of services meanwhile legitimate businesses and employees who follow the rules are the ones who suffer.
@@john2605 she has a legitimate business
@Absolute Justice There is no reason to make a comment like this.
This made me cry 10 times. This is passion. "People get mad and say I'm stealing the recipes of the old women of colombia" You mean what white people do all the time and get rich from? etc. chipotle.
Exactly lol
Exactly, shes not stealing anything, she's promoting her culture in the best way possible. All those recipes will be carried on to a new generation as they should.
Stealing shit get off the land your people stole from the native Americans if u wanna get all technical if not sit tf down.
Blame whitey, again
@@29lpk Nobody stole shit...stop crying.
From law school to cook. Much respect for the passion and hustle. Hope she comes out with a cookbook one day.
She has a passionate soul and love for her craft. You can’t not love seeing and hearing about it.
instead of saving Aurelia’s batch of tucupi for herself she shared it with the people 😭♥️
Two birds with one stone. Share what’s the most most most authentic/limited quantity and you won’t spoil yourself for lesser quality product in the future plus sharing cultural food with new people you want them to experience the best

Deadass b... me too
Quizás no leas este comentario parcera...pero al igual que tú en algún momento de tu vida también estoy en Chicago, trabajando en una cocina la mayor parte de mi tiempo literal los 6 días de la semana, si ya estaba encantada y llena de orgullo mirando tus platos, cuando escuche ese pedacito con el que sentí tan identificada empecé a llorar por que se la pasión y el amor que debes tener por la cocina y por de una u otra manera se lo difícil que es trabajar de sol a sol por los sueños, que el universo ilumine tu negocio que idea tan BACANA! Que platos tan hermosos y bien preparados 👏🏼 eres una colombiana echada pa’ adelante🌸
She seems so kind and kind hearted as well as someone fun to hang out with. Shes seriously an inspiration.
I love this woman's energy and passion.
As long as her neighbors are ok, then she really is not doing anybody any harm. Love to see this side of Colombian Culture getting attention.
True but the government is the problem they will take her down smh I hope she finds a way out of it cause she can't sell it out her bedroom in America if that was the case then we all would do it
I want this lady to be successful but the fact is rules have to be in place to be sure that her kitchen is hygienic, food is stored at correct temperatures, etc. It's all fine until a person dies from food poisoning.

I always love a Chef's commitment to educating people on the true diversity of their culture's food.
Spread the word, Stephanie! Hopefully I get to taste you food someday!
Indigenous food from meso america is always underrated.
Huge facts
I'm Colombian/Dominican and would love to try her food because it's not the typical food you can get at a local Colombian restaurant. I'm honestly not that familiar with meso american cuisine.
@califood3618 and I can see why. Chinese food is pretty darn good just like many foods around the world but my point is that we as Americans praise everyone elses food from a far, overlooking the healthy delicious food thats being made in our own yard for hundreds of years.
En México no. Es la mejor
@@efigueroa2526 si, eso es algo que me encanta de Mexico y Guatemala, eso dos paises son orgullos de su antes pasados. Aun que todo latino America tenemos indigenas.
What a badass, inspirational, fierce Latina Woman preserving her culture and traditions. Love it♥️💓🔥🙏🏽
every single one made with so much pride and confidence...you can taste pride..this is what makes america so great...inspirational.!!!
Love her story and that she's passing down the legacy of the women that brought these dishes to life. Its a beautiful mix of culture, history and flavours of the land all in one bite... that's just wonderful!!
Llore con este video siendo Barranquillera neta, y viviendo en nyc añoraba un restaurante que vendiera comida típica costeña. Eres un orgullo para nosotros los costeños. Me hiciste acordar cuando estaba en la universidad en nyc la gente que por ignorancia o malicia solo relacionaba colombia con drogas me daba mucha rabia. Y escuchándote hablar de nuestra cultura y que la defiendes. Llenaste mi corazón de alegria.
Such an inspirational story for women . Taking ingenuity and forging your own path. The biggest message is follow your heart and it will open doors for you!
Wow ok I’m Mexican American but dang my respect to this woman. Hard working and having her culture known through food. This is what people should be eating and not McDonald’s.
I hate watching these food series and not being able to taste anything.
Must be horrible to live without being able to taste

Colombians are some of the hardest working, friendly, and innovative people I know. The only risk in visiting Colombia is that you may never want to leave
I disagree. Very few are Lol my boyfriend is colombian but I’m not still we own a Colombian restaurant on Long Island in a large colombian community. The Colombians are so racist and will refuse service if you are NOT colombian. No joke. They say such nasty things to my non colombian workers and me. I can’t wait to leave honestly.
@@dsanti06 Colombians in Colombia are nice.
@@dsanti06 Also, I think you mean xenophobic, since Colombian is not a race but a nationality. Sad to hear that my fellow Colombians are leaving a bad impression. To be fair here we have kind of a bad image of gringos as well. Colombians born and raised in Colombia tend to be very nice.
