  • On this episode of The Offshoot Podcast, three incredible chefs define what makes food good, and it turns out good food is more than just about taste. Chef Sherise, the owner of Sweet Sage Catering, Chef Steven Steven German-Jones the co-owner of Palate202 Catering, and Chef Maine, the owner of The Maine Course, define what is good food by telling stories about their grandmothers' cooking, the family connections, the history of Black food, and rising costs to prepares dishes like collard greens and oxtails.

    Food can be basic or it can be a memorable meal. It can be an expensive cuisine of unique marinades and sauces or it can be a very satisfying grub that warms the soul. But in both cases, and everything in between, food can be good, and according to all three chefs, food should be good. Not all mac & cheese is the same, so what makes one version of the iconic dish more good than the other? Watch and listen to what Chef Sherise, Chef Steven and Chef Maine have to say about what makes food good on this episode of The Offshoot.
