Join us as our resident Latin American culinary instructor, Annelies Zijderveld, based in East Oakland, shows you how to make red pozole with chicken (and talk through plant-based ideas too). We will explore building flavor, especially when you don't have a whole day for broth to simmer. You will also make quick tostadas—the perfect accompaniment for this nourishing and hearty Mexican stew. Let's also talk about where you can find the ingredients in Oakland and dish on favorite places to eat pozole here too!

Im Moment Kaffee is more than just a café; it's a place to pause, relax, and appreciate the beauty of now. Created from the heart of owner, Semret (Semy) Tecle and our family, the café’s food and drinks reflect our family’s rich, multicultural heritage, influenced by German, Eritrean, and Italian traditions. Each dish is a personal creation, perfected with love and attention. We combine German bread with Eritrean spiced fillings and toppings, creating unique offerings. We also make in-house Eritrean honey wine and serve imported Italian Lambrusco, German Riesling, and a selection of German and Eritrean beers. At Im Moment, we strive to create a space where worries and screens are left at the door, where you can truly be in the moment; a space that feels like home—for us and for you.
