Houston, TX, November 9, 2026 —
Top Chef Season 22 winner Tristen Epps is set to collaborate with Chef Rafael Nasr of Craft Pita for a special one-day culinary event. The partnership will bring Epps’ distinctive culinary style to Craft Pita’s West University location on Saturday, November 14.
The event is scheduled to run from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. During this time, attendees will have the opportunity to experience two unique interpretations of classic Middle Eastern flatbreads. These will include lahm bi ajeen and lahmacun.
A notable feature of the offering will be Epps’ signature “ranchovy” sauce, which will be incorporated into the dishes. This collaboration highlights the growing interest in unique food experiences and the fusion of different culinary approaches.
Craft Pita’s West University location will host the event. The collaboration is open to the public, with no admission fee. However, availability will be limited to current supplies. The event aims to draw food enthusiasts eager to sample the creations of a Top Chef winner alongside local culinary talent.
