For years, Lupe Flores was primarily known as the drummer for a number of Seattle rock bands, including Wild Powwers. But as something to do to keep herself sane during pandemic lockdown, she reconnected with a childhood tradition. “I feel like a lot of musicians are like, 'Oh, I sang whatever in church' or 'My parents always had music,’” Flores says. “There was literally no music. There has always been food.” She started making tacos using her Lebanese-Mexican grandmother's recipe and began Lupe's Situ Tacos. (Situ is Arabic for "grandmother.") In an interview at her restaurant with KEXP’s Martin Douglas, Flores spoke of going from picking cilantro leaves in her grandmother's kitchen to starting a business in the heart of one of Seattle's coolest neighborhoods.Support the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Restauranteur and cookbook author Bricia Lopez takes us back to where her career in food really began -- the kitchen of the renowned, LA-based Oaxacan restaurant Guelaguetza, which her father opened in the 90's. Bricia and her siblings grew up washing dishes, bussing tables and helping their parents foster a sense of community for the Oaxacan diaspora in Los Angeles; something Bricia continues to do as one of the co-owners of the restaurant today. This conversation was recorded when record-breaking wildfires scorched LA earlier this year -- Bricia talks about how she was able to help through calling on her community. Plus, we hear how to make her mama's classic Huevo en Frijoles. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Humble. Gary Lanton and his lovely wife Dionn have been a big influence in the world of BBQ. We chatted about their journey in bbq from the roadside trailer kitchen onto the current location a brick and mortar store. Now taking ownership of a local breakfast icon of the area. But the big tv publishing of their bbq career didn't even come up in our conversation. Which kind of surprised me since they had such public success and the TV fame as a tail wind. They used their power of taste in their local area to capitalize on the bbq need in the area without as seen on TV stickers and have been quite successful in the boots on the ground grinding and hustling bbq game. Along the way using his construction background to build the business's building with his hand and skill. The truest form of blood sweat and tears. But bbq guys don't cry. Gary and Dionn have been figureheads in the bbq restaurant industry, and now with a newly owned established location coming in and injecting their hard work and taste into it as well with a house made sausage that they created and will be a beacon of breakfast on the menu along side the 30 plus year biscuit recipe for another 30 years or more. We spoke about this and so much more if you are a restaurant owner or have ever been to one this is a great insider gaze into the restaurant world. https://dublinbbq.com TheSmokeRingSyndicate.com

Send us a textToday we welcome Author Tripp Friedler to talk about his immensely powerful memoir about a father dealing with his son's crippling disorder- in a world that doesn't even understand it. The Tunnel is a father's memoir about a family's odyssey through the world of serious mental illness. It is a story about the battles Friedler's son Henry fought with his parents, with various authority figures—including schools, teachers, and the police— and most importantly, the battles Henry fought with his own mind. Henry's story takes place for the most part in the distinctive air of Uptown New Orleans. He came from a well-educated and prosperous Southern family, the only son between two sisters. I highly recommend everyone read this book. Tripp thank you for sharing your story with us. You are allowing the world to better understand what Bi-Polar disorder is and how we can learn to better accept it. Then Later we welcome New Orleans Restauranteur, Cara Benson! Cara owns many spots across the city that are loved by all! What started with the French bistro, Tartine, located under the gorgeous Live Oaks off of Broadway, Uptown then gave way to the unforgettable Brunch gems like, French Toast in the French Quarter, Toast on Gentilly Blvd, and then Toast in Gretna! This particular location is my kids' all time favorite restaurant because of the amazing vibes and fantastic playground for the littles to play on while you wait to be seated! Recently, Cara wanted to create another restaurant that caters to specially made breads and dishes with no gluten! Hen House is just that! She wanted to create a space that would welcome guests that have dietary restrictions, so that they may experience a Brunch that everyone can love!What makes this restaurant even cooler is that when Mardi Gras season comes, The Hen House closes and becomes a KING CAKE FACTORY that rolls out the BEST KING CAKE that New Orleans has to offer. I stand by my statement! Cara's King Cake is unlike anything that I have ever had! During the Carnival season you can find these delicious cakes at all of her places. Listen to how it all happened!
