2024 Global Plant-Forward Culinary Summit: Vegan Cuisine

General Session III: Vegan Cuisine: Delicious, Innovative, and an Unstoppable Force
Vegan cooking is no longer a niche culinary category; it is now mainstream. The two acclaimed chefs in this session-Priyanka Naik and Kate Lasky-have drawn attention for their innovative, flavor-first approach to vegan menus, from significant followers on social media and appearances on television, to nods from The New York Times, and The James Beard Foundation, showing that vegan cooking is an influential culinary force. Chef Priyanka Naik will demonstrate her skill at utilizing global flavors with an Indian twist and Chef Kate Lasky will share her farm-to-table approach to central and eastern European cuisine.
