Food media is blowing up, yet entire communities are left out of the conversation. Food is the best way to get to know each other and cultures outside of our own, and it's important that everyone has a seat at the table to tell their story. Food writer and photographer Korsha Wilson created A Hungry Society to foster more diverse and inclusive conversations about the culinary world. Each week, Korsha looks critically at the current state of the food world and welcomes guests to discuss the role of food in their lives.
Today’s guest is Trish Fontanilla, co-founder of BosFilipinos an organization that creates Filipino and Asian events in the Greater Boston area. Trish grew up in New Jersey and now lives in Boston working with Freight Farms which sells shipping containers that house complete hydroponic growing systems. On today’s show, Trish talks about the importance of dining in Filipino culture, what she hopes to teach diners about Filipino food at her pop-ups and how she feels when she hears food media call the cuisine she grew up with, ‘trendy’.
Tickets for the BOSFilipinos event can be found here.
