In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Rohini Dey, the founder of Chicago’s Vermilion restaurant as well as the founder of the foodservice organization Let’s Talk Womxn. Rohini joined the podcast — recorded in person at the Mid America Restaurant Expo in Columbus, Ohio — to talk about the power of food to bring about positive change, and how she’s doing that not only for Indian cuisines, cultures and flavors, but also for the community around her, including her employees and fellow restaurateurs.
In this conversation, you’ll find out why:
Global flavors have come a long way — and carry incredible potential in the US
You can embrace a trend without pandering to it
Surround yourself with people who know how to do what you don’t
You have to create the change you want to see
Get out of your bubble and connect with a community of like-minded peers
