Join JBF Greens for a celebration of National Hispanic Heritage Month at Amiga Amore in Highland Park. 

Founded by James Beard Award semifinalists Alessandro Zecca and Danielle Zecca, the neighborhood gem began as a pop-up in 2019 and became a brick-and-mortar restaurant in 2023. Chef Danielle specializes in what she calls “MexItalian” cuisine, which subtly combines her Mexican roots with her husband’s Italian heritage. 

For this occasion, chef Danielle will create a three-course menu that highlights regional Mexican dishes prepared with classic Italian techniques and local California produce.
