This roaming restaurant by chef Jay Rodriguez is known for creatively highlighting some of the best locally-sourced produce money can buy and crafting a tasting menu around it. “Like me, like my team, like HERA, the style is constantly evolving and ebbing and flowing just like the seasons that inspire our menus,” said Rodriguez. From restaurant takeovers to private dinners to a BLT pop-up, Hera champions representation of local produce no matter the occasion.
