This episode is the recording of the SXSW 2024 panel discussion I moderated with local chefs in Austin at a live SXSW event called Global Bites, Local Delights: How Immigrant Flavors Are Shaping the U.S. Food Scene. I’m joined by Chef Tavel Bristol-Joseph from Emmer & Rye Hospitality Group, Chef Edgar Rico from Nixta Taqueria, and Chef Simone Tong from Zoe Tong.
You’ll hear how global flavors are making their mark on American cuisine, influenced by talented chefs with roots from Guyana, Mexico, and China. You’ll learn how these chefs are adapting classical dishes from around the world to the local ingredients available in Austin. You’ll also hear about the important community role restaurants play and how these restaurants are overcoming food stereotypes.
What you’ll learn from the SXSW 2024 panel discussion
I’d like to share a potential educational resource, “Conversations Behind the Kitchen Door”, my new book that features dialogues with accomplished culinary leaders from various backgrounds and cultures. It delves into the future of culinary creativity and the hospitality industry, drawing from insights of a restaurant-industry-focused podcast, ‘flavors unknown”. It includes perspectives from renowned chefs and local professionals, making it a valuable resource for those interested in building a career in the culinary industry.
