Your host, Caity, has some big news to share!  You won’t be hearing from her as much on the upcoming season six, because she'll be on maternity leave. That's the inspiration for this week's episode: pregnant people are given a LOT of advice about what to eat, what not to eat, and how their tastes and bodies will change. There are suddenly so many rules and expectations – and a lot of conflicting recommendations –  that it can be really overwhelming.  Add to that your brain being piloted by a tiny alien, plus morning sickness, heartburn, and lots of other surprises, the act of nourishing yourself in pregnancy gets pretty complicated. This week, we tackle cravings, legends, and the myths and misunderstandings that land certain foods on the forbidden list.Meat and Three is powered by Simplecast.

The Queen City is changing right before our eyes, and the culinary community is leading the charge. HRN’s Caity Moseman Wadler and Kat Johnson sit down for a roundtable discussion about the exciting direction of Charlotte’s foodscape with Kris Reid, the Executive Director of the Piedmont Culinary Guild; Bruce Moffett, the founder of Moffett Restaurant Group; Ashley Boyd of 300 East; and Greg Collier of Uptown Yolk. The group talks about the unique community that is fostered through the Piedmont Culinary Guild, an invitation-only organization that connects the Food Chain in the Piedmont region of North and South Carolina. The PCG strengthens the local chef and culinary community by sharing resources, educating consumers, and establishing regional recognition. They also share insights on the evolving palate of the city and predictions for the future – from the rise of neighborhood restaurants and the city’s growing food truck scene – to the exciting new produce options at local farmers markets and ability to express the seasons through restaurant menus.

Kat Johnson and Caity Moseman Wadler join Chef Shai Fargian for lunch and a discussion on how Yafo Kitchen is changing the fast casual game in Charlotte. Now on his third location, Fargian continues to push boundaries. His menu features Israeli street food staples with a rotating seasonal menu. Everything is made in house – from falafel, hummus, and pita – to 48-hour braised lamb and the brand new amba chicken salad. Yafo Kitchen won over the city of Charlotte, inspiring hot takes that it could be the “next Chipotle.” We can believe it. Fargian is not only a gifted chef, he’s also got a background in the military and a degree in supply chain management. These skills serve him well. His days paratrooping taught him to always smile, especially in stressful situations (like jumping from a plane). Smiling calms your whole body down and makes you able to work through tough situations. He shares this advice with his staff. As Yafo Kitchen continues to grow (Fargian is aiming to open a few more locations soon), he has to put his logistical experience into play. Since all of Yafo’s food is super-seasonal and always made fresh, that means sourcing large quantities of local produce – way more than farmers are used to growing and selling to just one restaurant. In this wide-ranging conversation, Fargian reflects on Yafo Kitchen’s journey so far and looks towards a bright future for the restaurant group. HRN On Tour is powered by Simplecast.

Our Moderator Emily gives hard-hitting stories of food in the news to our panelists and they discuss their attitudes and opinions in our Weekly Baste Segment. This week we discuss turkey, street food vendors, holiday galas and fundraising. Our guest for The Weekly Grill is Caity Moseman Wadler, Executive Director of Heritage Radio Network. Caity holds an M.A. in Food Studies from New York University and a B.A. in Molecular Biology/Biochemistry from Middlebury College. Prior to her graduate studies, Caity worked at a biotech startup where she engineered yeast to discover new antibody drugs and took a whirlwind trip around the world before settling in New York City. Caity came to HRN back in 2015 through the Julia Child Foundation Food Writing Fellowship and later joined the team full-time as Deputy Director. She is also the co-host of two Heritage Radio Network shows: HRN Happy Hour and Meat + Three a zesty, 15-minute weekly update on food stories and commentary modeled after the Southern meat-and-three-sides concept: a deep dive and three shorts.
