Mangrove Culinary Archives Vol. 01: Coconut

From Coconut Wata to Table.

Some of our greatest culinary treasures aren’t found in cookbooks. They’re carried through generations, preserved through lived experiences, shared traditions and the people within our communities.

For our inaugural volume, we gathered around one familiar ingredient, the coconut, to explore its versatility, cultural significance and the stories connected to it.

At the center of our evening was Roderick, a longtime coconut legacy vendor at Flatbush & Caton, whose knowledge and experiences guided us through an evening of conversation, culinary exploration and a shared meal.

Curated and led by @sirpreme The Artist Formerly Known as Chef (Chef Love) of @mi_za_plaz

the evening brought together thoughtful culinary expressions and something far greater than the food itself.

The preservation of our stories, our traditions and the people who carry them.

Because food is more than sustenance. It’s history, identity, memory and connection.

This is the Mangrove Culinary Archives. A living collection of the culinary knowledge and foodways that make our communities who we are.

One ingredient. Countless stories. A living archive.

Vol. 01 is just the beginning.

We are honored to welcome Leon Anthony Jardine — “The Artist Formerly Known as Chef” — as an Honorary Founding Member of Fashion Forward.

Culinary + Lifestyle Director, Mi Zã Plaz

For Leon, food has never simply been about the plate.

It is a language.

A way to tell stories about migration, identity, memory, community, music, fashion, art and culture.

Through Mi Zã Plaz, Leon creates experiences rooted in the global Diaspora — bringing together food, hospitality, storytelling and creative expression through what he calls Diasporas Cuisine.

His philosophy is simple and powerful:

Food is the medium, not the destination.

And that is exactly why his voice belongs in the House.

Fashion is shaped by far more than clothing.

It is shaped by what we eat.
What we listen to.
How we gather.
What we remember.
What we create.
And the cultures we carry with us.

Welcome to Fashion Forward, Leon. 🤍

The Future of Fashion is Shaped Through Culture.
