Something I really like about Priya's interviewing skills is that she validates how much labor the interviewee is doing. I feel like we've been conditioned to see food service as unskilled, and it's really cool to see Priya push back against that.

I absolutely love this series. It's a great exploration of the DIY/"make it work with the tools you have" food culture that isn't often given a platform to share what they do. I get tired of the high profile chefs/restaurants always getting prioritized in food media and this is an excellent way to showcase worthy food entrepreneurs and home-trained cooks working with that they have! Great reporting and investigating Priya!

I’m living for this series! Telling the stories of Culinary POC in NYC is something I’ve been yearning to watch. This series is incredible and shines the culinary spotlight on people who would be overlooked by the culinary intelligentsia. Extraordinary Talent and great food exist in diverse areas of the food industry.

Man it’s videos like these that I’m glad Priya and other POC from Bon Appetit get to create content on a more inclusive platform. Even small things like “we may not be able to try the best food because they don’t have the savings to start a whole business” and especially understanding that from an immigrant or first gen experience. I love this concept! I buy from IG businesses too and all the ones I know are from WOC. I’d love to see more from this series

Lyana! This is Mandy, founder of Replica Surfaces. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed this! The way you and the Black Rican team turned a hardship into a runaway success so quickly and creatively is incredibly inspiring for all of us. Your passion for food, business, and creative marketing jumps off the screen. Selfishly, I wish I was within your delivery range since I'm plant-based too! I found this video because one of our Facebook VIP Community members spotted our Surfaces in it and told me about it. It's an honor that our Surfaces have played a small role in your success (emphasis on small), and I'm really grateful that you chose to show them off here. Thanks for sharing your story - I know it'll help jumpstart the creativity of anyone who's losing theirs right now

Love this series, it’s giving people more perspectives on how hard it really is to feed people. We depend on restaurants for when we celebrate and commiserate (and everything in between), we love them, we love their food but we must come to cherish those who prepare our food and make sure they are also taken care of.

It's only been 2 videos so far but I am obsessed with this series. I love how Priya and the production team approach this entire topic. Priya herself is a great food journalist - she speaks with a lot of passion, care and thought, and that dedication and knowledge really comes through in the way she interviews them and interacts with each profile so far. Super excited to watch the rest of the series now! I'm not American, but in my country, home-based businesses are really commonplace. Lots of our local home cooks, bakers and chefs thrive on social media and they rely on a network of word-of-mouth advertising (and occasionally get featured on popular food review sites/social media accounts). It helps that my country is pretty small, so access to these different home-based food businesses is quite convenient.
@SL-lz9jr2 ай бұрын
Home-based businesses aren't as common in the US primarily because of all the bureaucracy. It's not totally unwarranted. Food safety is after all a huge deal so it's important that home cooks have whatever permits they need to be a good vendor or use a kitchen that has been inspected by city health officials. Obviously, some people bypass that by selling on the down low and literally out of their home kitchens. But anyone trying to follow city, county or state laws knows there are a lot of barriers to entering the food industry in the US. But personally for my own safety I wouldn't want to sell directly out of my home so having a delivery service makes sense!

I saw in the trailer there would only be a few episodes released. I really hope that NYT Cooking will reconsider and make it a featured series with more episodes. Priya is an amazing interviewer and the people who are highlighted in these episodes are so hardworking and passionate. Their stories are really inspirational. In a time when everyone is really struggling, especially in the food industry, it's important for the hard work and dedication that these entrepreneurs put in to be acknowledged. This series shows that certain New York hustle and comradery that's hardly shown on screen. As a restaurant industry worker that's been pushing through during the pandemic, these stories are really validating and inspiring. Keep up the good work everyone!
