Line Cook Tristan Kwong of Bonnie’s is responsible for sourcing, buying, and curating all of the fruit that makes its way onto their famous fruit plate. His knowledge of how to pick the best fruit, at its peak ripeness, has earned him the title Fruit Sommelier—and he’s here to share what he knows. From pineapples and watermelons to dragon fruit, papaya and many more, learn how to identify when every fruit at the grocer is ready to come home with you.
