In our inaugural episode, we travel to Tennessee to speak with iconic chef, Sean Brock. We discuss his decision to move to Tennessee from Charleston, his new restaurant plans, his sobriety and motivation in the kitchen.

This conversation ignites a journey through the state of Tennessee that expands upon a 6 part series. We speak with industry leaders, such as Allan Benton of Benton's Country Ham, Roy Milner of Blackberry Farms Brewery, The Barefoot Farmer and others.

This is the first of six episodes we feature in Tennessee.

What is Something ELSE About Food…

Every city across the country is full of restaurants, farms, fishing companies and chefs who have made a name for themselves, the difference between being known and being: NOTEWORTHY…is in the details of their work, life and existence. It can be seen in the sweat, tears, joy, passion and the intention by which they live….everyday.

My job is to help share those stories through pictures, stories and content. Award winning restaurants and chefs are able to create exceptional dishes when they source from quality & conscious growers and producers. Sharing their stories is my mission…
