The owners of Societi Bistro, Peter Weetman and Tammy Botbyl, have travelled extensively and wanted to share their culinary discoveries by creating an armchair travel experience through staycation cuisine.“The reason we selected these regions is to experience the contemporary definition of a bistro, having evolved into any rural food served in an urban environment. The regions were broad brush stroke of rural food made popular by chefs feeding city dwellers approachable fair - think Anthony Bourdain. Many chefs have gone on from cooking shows to travel shows with a strong rural slant” comments Weetman.
