Thought I’d make it official, you guys. The launch of “Table to Stage” this fall — details on my spicy new website from my spicy old friends @designbyprinciple — marks the start of exciting new things. For a peek at what’s on my mind:

And for f*ck’s sake, don’t be bland.

Table Talks with S.Pellegrino ✨
Last month, we joined the @southernsmokefoundation in Houston at the Southern Smoke Festival, a day filled with incredible food, good drinks, and the very best kind of community, where $2 million was raised to support food and beverage workers in crisis.
James Beard Award Winner, @chefadriantorres was joined by other incredible figures in the culinary community @ninacompton, @chabelacoss, and @cshepherd13 to talk about all things to do with mentorship and the support of chefs and their growth in this industry.

THAT’S how you roll into Southern Smoke Festival 🥂
From chauffeuring our chefs around town in style to bringing the ultimate VIP hangout to life year after year, @lexususa brings the luxury and always goes the extra mile (literally) to help us take care of our own.
Thank you to Lexus for supporting the magic that is VIP at Southern Smoke Festival. We can’t wait to do it all again next year! 💛

A few months back our friends @americanexpress @resy @exploretock asked @htownlindseybrown and I if we wanted to head out to @casamarialuigia and do a 48hr deep dive into the world of @massimobottura. The answer was an absolute yes. We had never been to Modena and what a fantastic reason to go see the area and learn more about the food and culture.
This was one of those experiences that we won’t soon forget. To really see what the teams that are working with Massimo are doing was truly inspiring not just with the quality and techniques of the food and service but what they are doing for the community around them. I think one of the biggest things that we will walk away is their work @tortellante which is a non-profit workshop and social inclusion project based in Modena, Italy, that teaches autistic teenagers and adults how to hand-make traditional Modenese tortellini. For us as a group of Chefs and Restaurant folks to be able to sit down with the teens and the Nonnas to learn the skills of traditional tortellini making and what it does for the everyone involved, it was truly special. For a restaurant group to step outside of what they normally do to work with a community to provide a practice of inclusive work for the community. Nonnas working and teaching teenage and young adults with Autism a skill and to promote team building to help build skills to enter the professional world. Restaurants are just amazing in what they can do for the community around them. By stepping outside of the normal day to day to see a need and to build a program around that is just a beautiful thing and it was absolutely delicious. I love seeing people using their skills for the betterment of their community to make a big impact on people’s lives.
Thank you @aaron_ginsberg @pt.rivero @murphberger1 @hannahekelly and the whole team for having us and giving us the opportunity to reconnect with friends and to meet new ones. Thank you for building that community!

I must confess, I love a meat market. I also love that this is my first full feature print in @foodandwine magazine. This coming from a human that does not own a computer and did horribly in any kind of grammar class growing up. Passion will lead you in many different directions and the process of sausage making, roadside markets and old vine wines lead me out to Wine Country in Northern California. @ownrooted told me about the meat markets and amazing winemaking in Lodi and I just had to see it for myself. I spent a few days out there visiting @forlornhopewines and @sandlandsvineyards and bought as much sausage as would fit in the cooler from @lakewoodmeats and @lockeford_sausage_ and fired up the grill and pulled some corks!!! Then back over to Sonoma where @panizzerameatco fresh sausages blew me away with some of the best Italian sausage I’ve had. Walking into @journeymanmeatco and falling in love with what they are doing was awesome. My wife was not surprised when I joined the Salumi club and now they have a bacon club!!!! It’s literally one of the best presents every time it shows up!!!
This was so amazing to work on because I had a fantastic team of editors. I think this article is wonderful and beautiful. Thank you team for letting this guy say something about the things I love, true artisans. @lucynashsimon

What’s happening team??? This @culturemaphou Wine Guy article was a pleasure to write. I get to talk about my friend @antonio.gianola and his new venture of purchasing and owning one of Houston’s most iconic wine shops @houstonwines. This is something I had Ben hoping to see for A very long time and I don’t think I’m the only one. Read up and let’s all congratulate Scott Spencer on starting such a wonderful shop and for having Antonio lead the shop into the future. It will be in good hands!!!!
