  • Chef-Owner Tita from Portland
    2024/05/16

    Three Peruvian food carts, two juice bars, and a donut shop... and she's still growing! Fabiola (aka "Tita") came at food cart and restaurant ownership with the drive, passion, and enthusiasm of a true super entrepreneur. Inspired by her love of family, her father's legacy, and her Peruvian roots—and ably supported by her sister Fabiana, her mother, and a robust staff with a similar background—Tita is building a mini food empire in the Portland, Oregon area.

  • Chef-Owner Matt from Wheeling
    2024/04/15

    The Vagabond Chef enters the studio: culinary anthropologist, West Virginia prodigal son, and all about stories and real f*cking food made with intention. This self-described "more vigilante than superhero" is reimagining the way small communities look at food culture—through the lens of Appalachian history and his travels.

    The true embodiment of artist and adventurer—inflected perhaps with a bit of stoic Memento mori—this dairy farm kid turned entrepreneur has bootstrapped his way to becoming a farm-to-table restaurant owner, executive chef of West Virginia State Parks, and Value Added Product Coordinator for the WV Food and Farm Coalition.

    Follow the Vagabond Chef's journey on the Vagabond Kitchen website, YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram @thevagabondchef.

    Is there room for more empathy in fine dining kitchens? Our interview with Chef Camila Rinaldi explores the topic in an honest, heartfelt discussion of the roles that fear and respect play in the restaurant industry.

    We chat about balancing vulnerability and toughness in some of the most intense restaurant kitchens in New York City, as well as the patience and survival skills that many upward-moving female chefs employ every day to be taken seriously.

Listen in to a celebration of love, music, food, and community—a journey of diversity, acceptance, and connection. They inspire us never to forget our origin stories or ignore how interwoven we are. Out of many, we truly are one...

    Chef Taj and Danielle are affiliated with Chef José Andres's World Central Kitchen and many Colorado food and restaurant associations, as well as deeply embedded in their beloved Denver community.

    A huge shout out to Zeppelin Station for connecting us to Chef Tajahi (@tajah_i) and Danielle (@rubee_leo) and for supporting all their incredible work with Ms Betty's Cooking (@msbettysgrandson)!

    Throughout the interview, the couple generously praised so many who have enriched their journey. We have compiled as many as we could find—music, food, and community groups—and listed their Instagram accounts on our website, or follow us on Instagram @turnburnshow to get links there.
