Photo of Sun City chef's creation to be featured in gallery

The culinary team at Royal Oaks, 10015 W. Royal Oak Road, recently participated in a photo session, turning their kitchen creations into works of art.

Each member of the team designed unique presentations that were then expertly photographed by staff member Leny Longo.

These photos were submitted for a chance to be featured in an exhibit at The Herberger Theater. Executive Chef Francelle Mata’s creation, titled “Aladdin’s Coffee,” has been chosen for display in the gallery show.

This summer, Mata’s masterpiece will be featured alongside other works by 37 local artists from Arizona, highlighting the intersection of culinary art and visual presentation.
