AUSTIN, Texas - Normally this time of year Siete Foods would be planning a large celebration of culture, food, and family but of course, at this time such an in-person gathering is not possible. So the company is collaborating with the restaurant LORO for a virtual at-home event instead.
"Juntos at Home: Austin Amor" will feature virtual performances from local artists and the option to purchase a cook-at-home meal box. The companies are also making donations to two local non-profits, HAMM and Central Texas Food Bank.
