"The whole point of heading out to NYC was to attend the 15th Cherry Bombe Jubilee, which was a whirlwind of a day, with 1,000 women to network and build community with, be inspired by, learn about their products, hear their stories, and buy their cookbooks."
"My favorite panel was The Legacy of Edna Lewis, with culinary historian Toni Tipton-Martin, who wrote the forward for The Taste of Country Cooking: 50th Anniversary Edition by Edna Lewis (out now!), with Nina Williams-Mbengue (Edna's niece), who looked so much like her, it was breathtaking!"
"I totally savored the keynote conversation with the iconic-yet-publicity-shy Jody Williams and Rita Sodi (I Sodi, Via Carota, Buvette), as well as the inspiring stories from Jenny Nguyen of The Sports Bra (the country's first sports bar dedicated exclusively to women's sports)."
The author recently returned from a week-long trip to New York City, where they attended the 15th Cherry Bombe Jubilee, a major gathering for women in the food and culinary industry. The event featured 1,000 attendees and included multiple panels and keynote conversations covering topics such as culinary history, women's entrepreneurship, and food media. Notable sessions included a panel on Edna Lewis's culinary legacy with historian Toni Tipton-Martin, conversations with restaurateurs Jody Williams and Rita Sodi, and discussions about cookbooks and social media. The author experienced numerous meals and cultural highlights throughout the trip and plans to share detailed stories and photos with subscribers in an upcoming piece.
