Food is the great connector and a universal commonality. Get to know Katie’s guests through their experiences with food, favorite things they like to cook, childhood memories, and daily routines.
Katie Lee Biegel is the Emmy-nominated co-host of Food Network’s The Kitchen, now in its 37th season with over 500 episodes to date. Katie is an avid writer, the author of four best-selling cookbooks, It’s Not Complicated, Endless Summer, Everyday Occasions, and The Comfort Table, and also the novel Groundswell, which became a Hallmark movie that she executive produced and starred in. Her next Hallmark film is currently in development. Katie is the co-founder of Kind of Wild Wines, an organic, zero sugar wine with grape varietals sourced from all over the world. She is a longtime Revlon spokesperson and a board member for the Food Bank for New York City.
Katie splits her time between New York City and the Hamptons with her husband, Ryan, daughter, Iris, and their rescue dog, Gus. In her free time, she loves traveling, reading, and watching bingeable tv.
Katie hosts her dear friend, Sam Sherman, of The Hampton Grocer, to gush about all things Hamptons and New York City dining. Sam tells her story of working in the restaurant industry in Manhattan for almost a decade prior to opening her booming Hampton’s granola company. Previously, she worked front of house for both Mario Batali and Tom Colicchio (sometimes serving over 300 guests in one evening!), as well as for famous event planner, Marcy Blum.
Once the pandemic hit, Sam was out of a job and needed to pivot. She started grocery shopping for families in the Hamptons and selling her mother-in-law’s granola recipe at farm stands. Much to her surprise, the granola immediately took off and she’s never looked back. Currently, Hampton Grocer is in over 250 retailers selling their classic flavors, as well as seasonal flavors including their Fall Tahini, Apple, and Cinnamon Granola in collaboration with Seed + Mill.
Sam spills all the tea on who her most difficult NYC restaurant guest was, as well as what it was like to shop for luxury clients in the Hampton’s (let’s just say…not easy!). Tune in to hear some stories that will make you laugh out loud and for an exclusive discount code for Hampton Grocer Granola!
