EK 09 - Sri Lankan Bites - An Interview With Chef Samantha Fore

There may not be anyone in Kentucky’s food scene who has been hotter over the past six months than my guest in this episode of Eat Kentucky. From a feature article in Bon Appetit to a cover recipe in Food & Wine with a myriad of appearances far and wide, Samantha Fore of Tuk Tuk Sri Lankan Bites has been everywhere. She shows no signs of slowing down.   

In this episode we discuss her hectic schedule, a trip to Spain, her relationship with the Southern Foodways Alliance and the group Brown In the South as well as her role as an unofficial food ambassador for Kentucky. Plus, why she never could have gotten where she is today from anywhere but Lexington, Kentucky. We have a great time talking, and you’ll enjoy getting to know Chef Sam Fore.
