The Dutchess & Joplin’s Saw Naing x Old World Winery Takeover at Crudo e Nudo

From April 13–19, Crudo e Nudo’s 5th Anniversary Guest Chef & Winemaker Series brings together Chef/Owner Brian Bornemann’s friends for sustainable seafood-driven à la carte specials and inspired natural wine pairings. No prix-fixe—just great fish, wine, and community.

On April 14th, dear friend Saw Naing, who arrived from Burma in 2007 with a musician’s heart and trained under Thomas Keller, brings his rock-and-roll energy to Ojai’s The Dutchess and Joplin’s, and today gives the Crudo menu a Burmese twist. Alongside him, California legend Darek Trowbridge of Old World Winery (one of Sonoma’s first dedicated natural wineries) pours his best skin-contact and not-so-red wines. A match made in heaven.
