St. Paul Square Dinner Club with Chef Geronimo Lopez
🍽️ YOU’RE INVITED: An Exceptional Evening with Chef Geronimo Lopez 🍽️
Thursday, April 2, 2026 | 7:00 PM | The Cherrity Bar (Patio), San Antonio, TX
Join us for an unforgettable evening under the stars with one of San Antonio’s most celebrated culinary talents, Chef Geronimo Lopez, the newly appointed Vice President of Culinary Operations for the San Antonio Food Bank.
Famed for his incredibly unique Peruvian-Japanese fusion cuisine, inventive approach and deep respect for flavor, Chef Geronimo has long been a driving force in San Antonio’s dining scene. Many will remember him as the chef and owner behind the beloved Botika at Pearl, where he masterfully blended Peruvian and Asian influences into a vibrant, boundary-pushing menu. Most recently, he led the kitchen at Supper and Hotel Emma, where his thoughtful, ingredient-driven cuisine continued to earn acclaim. Today, he brings that same passion and purpose to his esteemed new role as the chef leading culinary initiatives at the San Antonio Food Bank—furthering his commitment to community through food.
In fact, a portion of proceeds from this dinner will be donated to the San Antonio Food Bank.
We are honored to showcase Chef Geronimo for this very special one-night-only dinner, where he will present a multi-course menu that reflects his signature style—creative, expressive, and grounded in both technique and soul. Expect dishes that are dynamic, unexpected, and above all, delicious!
