Curio Culinaria is a chef-led culinary and cultural experience brand based in Orlando, Florida.

Founded by Chef Abeoler Lewis, Curio Culinaria brings together globally inspired cuisine, thoughtful hospitality, and immersive cultural experiences. Our work is rooted in the belief that food is more than something we eat—it carries history, identity, memory, and connection.

From intimate private dining and cultural supper clubs to allergy-conscious menus and our Hanbok Tea Experience, every offering is created with care, creativity, and intention.

Culinary Experiences Created With Intention

Curio Culinaria creates personalized culinary experiences for intimate gatherings, celebrations, and guests seeking something beyond an ordinary restaurant meal.

Each experience is thoughtfully developed around the occasion, the people attending, and the story being shared. Our menus are influenced by global flavors, traditional foodways, and Chef Abeoler’s Trinidadian heritage, culinary training, and professional experience across hospitality, resort dining, healthcare dining, and allergy-conscious food service

Private Dining & Chef’s Tables

Food offers a meaningful way to discover the history, traditions, and identity of a culture.

​

Through curated dinners, special events, and future supper-club experiences, Curio Culinaria explores the people, ingredients, and stories behind the food we eat. These experiences invite guests to connect with cultures through thoughtfully prepared dishes, storytelling, and shared conversation.

Our cultural dining series begins with the rich and diverse culinary heritage of Trinidad and Tobago, including the traditions and influences that have shaped both islands.

The Hanbok Tea Experience

Experience Korean-inspired tea, food, clothing, and hospitality in an intimate and thoughtfully curated setting.

​

Guests are invited to select and wear a traditional or modern hanbok while enjoying a beautifully presented tea service featuring Korean-inspired teas, sweets, and small savory bites. The experience may also include cultural storytelling, styled photographs, and time to appreciate the details and significance of the clothing and traditions being presented.

The Hanbok Tea Experience is ideal for birthdays, mother-and-daughter outings, small celebrations, photoshoots, or anyone interested in experiencing Korean culture in a beautiful and memorable way.

Private experiences are available for individuals and small groups. Hanbok styles, availability, and sizing vary.
