On @kare11 in the Kitchen👩🏻‍🍳 we are highlighting an event called "Minnesota Rice" where some of the biggest Asian chefs in the Twin Cities are standing up against anti-Asian hate.
I caught up with @ZenBox Izakaya chefs John and Lina to learn more! Watch at 9am on our KARE FB page

Yes, it’s HOT outside, but that won’t stop me from having a piping hot and gooey bowl of Congee for a lazy Sunday morning. My ultimate comfort food with all of my favorite toppings.

Going through.
A. Most have laid off their staff
B. Many are skinnying up menus to try and give a good experience.
C. They are tired
D. They are taking care of their staff with food, benefits resources etc.

Have some compassion vs threatening them on social media. #asshats

Hey people curbside puck up and to go orders. BE NICE. If your @bitesquad order got cancelled because a restaurant was overwhelmed - it sucks for everyone. The driver, the restaurant etc. people are doing their best. I wish you could see what some of these restaurant owners are

We’re grateful that the CARES Act is now law. But this relief is by no means the solution. It’s a lifeline to keep our restaurants afloat, but it won’t reopen our doors. Local, independent restaurants need more — we’re just getting started #SaveRestaurants https://t.co/yeLvZjtTPe

@thelefthandedLA @wphsu @RamenArchitect Yes! Always have been a big fan of @wphsu’s ginseng! My mother would probably disown me if I don’t bring any back whenever we go home to visit in Asia as an obligatory souvenir for our relatives! LOL #Asianparentexpectations

Thank you for the shoutout, @wphsu! Happy New Year! 🧧🐖🙏

@CitizenDino @ZenBoxIzakaya Enjoy! The co-owners @ZenBox @RamenArchitect are amazing! Haven't seen them since I left the Cities, but I've been following their food journeys.

John Ng of @ZenBoxIzakaya approaches cooking like he once did architecture—he fills notebooks with sketches, splashing ingredients, plating directions, and notes on the structure of his food across the page. https://t.co/bH7RD6qqSc

@dchinphoto I’ve stopped trying to correct/explain anymore.....

Spring is in bloom and everything is coming up cocktails. Stay cool with one of our featured cocktails, ‘Hive Mind’. Gentle and honeyed with Sauvignon Blanc and Añejo tequila with a fun umeboshi kick. Our patio is open all night for sun-soaked afternoons and shady sunsets.
