Most all of us are driven by a desire to create something that makes an impact. Be it through food, or through coffee, we craft an experience and hope that the values and culture that drives us shines through with each plate and cup served. In many ways, we are relaying a story through our craft in hopes that that story and experience will be accurately captured and told by others. Through his writing, that is exactly what today's guest does in the culinary world.
Today we are talking with award winning author and founder of TASTE, Matt Rodbard.
