“ I certainly learned about how media works — our faces and our stories weren't included. That was my bat signal to make that change.” Nicole Ponseca is a pioneering voice in the culinary world and one of the most respected thought leaders in the Hospitality and Filipino community. Nicole has proven herself on the NYC scene with critically acclaimed restaurants, Maharlika and Jeepney. She revolutionized perceptions of Filipino food in the United States, turning bold and authentic flavors into a movement that resonated with diners, critics, and food enthusiasts alike. Her debut cookbook, I Am a Filipino, is a James Beard Award finalist and hailed as a definitive work on Filipino cuisine, celebrated as a cookbook of the year and top lists from The New Yorker, NY Times, LA Times, Saveur, Food and Wine, Chicago Tribune and more. Nicole's unconventional career journey began in advertising, but but found her true calling in food and culture. By night, she spent a decade in every restaurant role imaginable—hostess, server, bartender, manager—learning the ins and outs of the industry to fulfill her mission. Namely, the creation of Maharlika and Jeepney, two groundbreaking establishments that introduced Filipino dishes like Kamayan feasts to the mainstream and became cultural hubs for the Filipino community and a signal that Filipino food was claiming its seat at the culinary table. You'll enjoy this conversation blending storytelling, food, and culture This conversation was hosted by FrieMMd of the Pod Lisa Angulo Reid —sharing conversations with Filipino and Asian American changemakers.

Some type of significant change, whether in our careers or personal lives, voluntary or not. For Nicole, she went from VP in Advertising to a role in the restaurant industry. She is a great example of listening to that voice in the back of your mind saying, “you're supposed to be doing something else,” and then stepping out and doing it. Opening yourself up to reinvention and new dreams can be risky and scary, but there are so many lessons that can be learned from Nicole's own journey of creating a different lens around Filipino food, especially in the mainstream culinary world.Connect with Nicole:* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicoleponseca/ Join the Filipina Soul Sisterhood Circle!

Within the pages of this beautiful book, author and illustrator Lindsay Gardner shines a spotlight on the inspiring achievements of women in food today. From Food52 cofounders Amanda Hesser and Merrill Stubbs to The Chew host Carla Hall to slow food activist and chef Deborah Madison, soba maker and sake sommelier Mutsuko Soma, food journalist Ruth Reichl, community organizer Shakirah Simley, and more, Why We Cook celebrates those who are dedicated not only to their craft, but to supporting other women within the industry. Alongside the text are Gardner’s vibrant and gorgeous watercolor illustrations that bring these women to life. Meet changemakers, like Cristina Martinez, a chef who emigrated from Mexico and who brings her Philadelphia community together through food while using her platform to champion immigrants’ rights; and Leah Penniman, who describes a day in her life on Soul Fire Farm, which she co-founded to combat racism in the food system. Evocative reflections on food and memory, like Rachel Khong's ode to her mother's love of fruit. And narrative recipes, like restaurateur Nicole Ponseca's Bibingka. The result is an inspiring, empowering, and moving celebration of the place where food meets feminism. Lindsay Gardner is an illustrator and artist who lives in Oakland, California, with her husband and two daughters (her two favorite sous chefs). Originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan, her penchant for stories and art led her to study American literature and art at Middlebury College and to earn her MFA in painting from San Francisco Art Institute.

A former advertising executive turned restaurateur, Nicole's coming-of-age story is familiar perhaps to other Filipino-Americans having been born to a military dad and nurse mom. Moving to New York with $75 to her name and to advance her career in advertising, she soon realized her calling to represent her Filipino heritage and culture. While working in advertising, she moonlighted as a dishwasher, busser, runner, and server. A childhood memory of shame in watching her father eat with his bare hands would only later become the saving grace for her restaurant Jeepney which opened during Hurricane Sandy.

Maharlika is the first restaurant in NYC to push Filipino food as a unique cuisine, and we’re joined by chef Miguel Trinidad, along with Enzo Lim, Noel Cruz, and Nicole Ponseca. Hear about how they’ve maintained the flavors of Filipino food, but also moved away from the one-pot dish. Recently featured as a Timeout New York “Critics’ Choice”, and profiled by the Huffington Post and NBC, Marharlika is not a spot to miss. Also in the studio is Reggie Watts, musician and comedian known for his work with Conan O’Brien, and his Comedy Central Special, Why Shit So Crazy? Reggie plays some incredibly intricate and funny improv songs that he creates with synthesizers, loop pedals, and his vocal chords. So tune in to check out this great episode of Snacky Tunes!

The idea is that in the Philippines, we don’t eat just one dish, there’s many dishes on the table. So you eat a little sweet, you eat a little sour, and of course all of our condiments.” “When we set out to do this we wanted to go big or go home… we wanted to get Filipino food out there, finally.” — Nicole Ponseca of Maharlika on Snacky Tunes “Weird Al is amazing, he’s the reason I’m doing what I am doing.” — Reggie Watts on Snacky Tunes
