Food Philosophy Videocast #9: Taste of the Nation Miami

27 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in chefs & restaurants

Food Philosophy Videocast #9: Taste of the Nation Miami After sampling some delicious morsels at Miami’s Taste of the Nation, celebrating its 20th year in the fight against hunger, I chatted with the cherubic Allen Susser, coordinating chef of the event and chef/owner of the notable Chef Allen’s. I never cease to be amazed at the energy exuded by chefs to feed hungry people of all income levels, and Taste of the Nation is one of the finest charity events in the U.S. Not only does it benefit local food banks and charities, but it gives you, the guest, an…

The Virtual Company

27 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in food

Our pal C.C. Chapman’s company, Crayon, was just featured on ABC News as part of a story on virtual companies and the future of work. We love that people are seeing virtual setups as a way to do business, as it’s certainly ours — our company is wherever on the planet we happen to be, and our team participates from around the world, creating everything from podcasts in Spain to cocktails in Singapore. That the news media is catching on is refreshing, as the typical office scenario is rather Old World (and boring) to us. We see no need for…

I recorded some of this show while on my flight back from Mexico, so you get to be in the air right along with me. Before Mexico, however, we had a chance to explore the flavors of Miami Spice Month, which happens during August and September, and features more than 80 restaurants with specially priced menus ($22 for lunch, $35 for dinner). We began by attending Share Our Strength’s Taste of the Nation, which benefits anti-hunger programs both locally and nationally, and I’ll have video…

Scenes from the Road

19 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in travel

Well, we are home again as we rest up for the next trip, but we decided to capture a little slice of life on the road. P.S. Did you know that the airport in Dallas/Ft. Worth sells iPods in a vending machine? Gnarly. As you can see, I’m always in high glamour no matter what the setting. I didn’t have much energy left at this point in the journey, though I did manage to record my latest podcast on the plane. That will be up later tonight. Chef Mark, however, seems to have an unending stream of energy, which means…

A Taste of Mexico

18 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in food

Well, we’re wrapping up our trip to Guadalajara, and I have to say that I’ve tasted some incredible flavors over the past few days. Our hosts were kind enough to take us for some authentic Mexican cuisine, and I must tell my fellow gringos that you don’t know what you’re missing! Take the chalupa as an example. We had some last night at La Tequila, and they were so very tasty — nothing like the ones you’re going to find at Taco Bell. Their smoky flavor, combined with the sweetness of the corn tortillas made for an excellent way to…

Congratulations, Chef Mark!

14 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in food

I say this not just because my fine-toqued friend just celebrated his second podiversary with ReMARKable Palate episode 104, but also because he has been elected to the National Advisory Council for the U.S. Personal Chef Association. Given his tireless advocacy for personal chefs and their unique metier, I think the USPCA and its members will be very grateful for Mark’s role on a national level — those of you who have seen him in action know he’s a whirling dervish, and always has another idea to share. Congratulations to you, my dear friend, for such a wonderful duo of…

Off to Mexico…

14 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in travel

I feel like I just un-packed, but I am now re-packed for our jaunt to Mexico. Chef Mark and I are off to shoot a custom series that we’ll talk about very soon, and we’re rather excited about it. We shall taste, drink and shoot our way through the environs of Guadalajara and the Jalisco region, where you can be sure we’ll be sipping some Tequila. ;) I’m not sure what our hi-speed access will be like, but we’ll do our best to keep things updated from the road. Yes, remember, we’re the web monkeys, too. It’s a good life….

UrbanDaddy and Charlie Trotter

12 Aug 2007, Posted by Jennifer Iannolo in chefs & restaurants

If you happened to catch my rum cocktail adventure on Food Philosophy #51, you were introduced to UrbanDaddy, an invitation-only site that gives you the inside scoop on the latest and greatest happening in the world of jetsetting, eating, drinking and savoring life in general. Well, I got my “JetSet” newsletter from them today, and was delighted to discover they linked to my interview with Charlie Trotter from 2003, where we talked about our mutual admiration of Ayn Rand (was that really four whole years ago?!). The link was part of an announcement from UrbanDaddy about a fascinating dinner called…

Their artisanal olive oils, red wine vinegars and fruit syrups are made from hand-picked fruits from their own sustainably-farmed estate in the Napa Valley. I ran into them at the farmer’s market when I was out in wine country, and became giddy when I discovered the new fruit syrups. Meyer lemon syrup over cheesecake, anyone? I thought so. They now offer estate wines as well, and tours…
