Bar Bludorn
NEW THIS MONTH! Our Guest Chef series continues with Chef Aaron Bludorn—executive chef and owner of the Montrose landmark eatery Bludorn and Chef Alexandra Pena— executive chef of the NEW Bar Bludorn opening in Memorial in March of 2024! Chef Bludorn was raised in the Pacific Northwest, trained in the Bay Area and New York and landed in Houston a few years ago. He and his wife, Victoria Pappas Bludorn and partner Cherif Mdboji have given our city a most fabulous, fun and high-quality dining experience in Bludorn and Navy Blue.
This amazing team is venturing into the Memorial area for their new concept, Bar Bludorn featuring Executive Chef Alexandra Pena. Alexandra is a native Houstonian and alumna of the Culinary Institute Lenotre; she credits her Mexican grandmother for sparking her interest in food and cooking and teaching her to hone her tortilla and tamale-making skills.
Our team was all smiles during Chef Aaron and Chef Alexandra’s visit to Belong. This month’s featured dish is Shepherd’s Pie! You don’t want to miss this special twist on a classic comfort dish. Ground beef blended with onions, carrots, peas, mushrooms, garlic and spices with red wine and Worcestershire is topped with fluffy mashed potatoes and delicious white cheddar and then browned to perfection. This is sure to be a hit at your dinner table! Don’t miss out. Belong side salads and yeast rolls will also be available. Join us every Wednesday in February for this amazing collaboration.
