David Camacho
Joseph Dominick
Luis Cordero
Katherine Barbosa 
Clarisel Gonzalez (moi)
I am the curator for this exhibit with input from Jimmy Rodriguez of Don Coqui.
Here's more information on the restaurant as posted at www.doncoqui.com:

Once again, Jimmy Rodriguez, the creator of the internationally-renowned Restaurants is cooking up a storm with his new and masterful creation of Don Coqui.

Mr. Rodriguez's personal passion for creating something great, and his business philosophy, "you can't succeed if you are not excited about what you are doing," are the main ingredients behind Don Coqui's story.

Don Coqui is an inspiration rooted and aged by four generations of "family secret" recipes birthed in the enchanting island of Puerto Rico and New York. Simply put, the concept of Don Coqui is: "mi casa es tu casa."

Don Coqui's vast cultural and global brand appeal is most noted for its passion for people. At Don Coqui you feel like a member of the family while treated like the most important person; in the most exciting place.

There is so much to be said about Don Coqui's love at first bite. It's all about the awesome food, the electric energy of the people, its beautiful sound; a mixture of laughter and Latin music as waiters gracefully dance to the rhythm of kitchen chaos.

At Don Coqui you are always reminded of how great it feels to be alive!

Don Coqui's mixture of authentic Puerto Rican classic, along with a minimalist/elegant design flair and upscale edge, is sure to become the most exciting dining and entertainment spot for all occasions.

Whether you are dinning, entertaining or catering an event, Don Coqui is ready to make you feel at home.

Don Coqui is purely authentic, enchantingly delicious and unforgettable!

Don Coqui's creative management team, collective offers over 100 years of expertise in: culinary arts, hospitality, dining, entertainment, interior design, marketing and branding.

The NYC Collective of the Puerto Rican Photographic Society is glad to be a part of the opening. 

Pues make sure to stop by tomorrow or some other night.
