Should We Leave St. Louis... For Good? | A Conversation with Darius Cooks & Juwan Rice
Description
When Darius Cooks walks into the room, you can't help but feel the presence of someone who's poured their soul into their craft. And believe me, joining him in today’s conversation is Juwan Rice, whose culinary ventures have left a mark on the food landscape here in St. Louis. These two don't just cook; they transform familiar dishes into luxurious experiences that linger long after the last bite. As we reminisce about our last gathering, their stories of unrecognized talent turning into celebrated success will inspire anyone who's ever felt overlooked in their passion.
Navigating the streets of St. Louis on 314 Day, you can taste the pride that simmers in this city's soul. As we chat about the joys and hurdles of earning local support, from the defensive pride of our residents to the sweet victory of finally gaining hometown patronage, you'll understand why community means everything in the culinary world. Our culinary journey takes us from the iconic St. Paul sandwich to the adventurous palates at Blood and Sand, with each bite revealing a passionate city that's much more than its sports teams.
Join us as we share a feast for both the stomach and the soul.
