This evening I had the pleasure of attending a talk featuring Alex Atala and David Chang as part of the NYC Food and Wine Festival. As many of you know (especially those who are avid My Global Hustle readers), I’m obsessed with the movement that Alex has created in Brazil (specifically in the Amazon). Alex is championing a movement that highlights the importance of rethinking “OUR” relationship with food.
Lorde apparently is one of the hottest artist on this scene (if you let the itunes numbers tell it). A couple of my friends have been buzzing about this 16 year phenom, so I decided to check out the record.
What do I think? I think the record is cool, but definitely doesn’t live up to the internet hype. I guess I’m going to have to check out a couple more tunes before I can make a true judgement call on if I’m into her music. What do ya’ll think? Check out her video clip. – LOM (@youngglobal)
One of my favorite chefs, Alex Atala recently released a cookbook entitled “D.O.M” named after his award winning restaurant in Brazil. Alex has redefined the culinary experience in Latina America has been recognized as one of the world’s top chefs and restauranteurs. He is in town for the Food and Wine Festival this weekend doing a couple meet and greets. Check out the clip below. (more…)
I’m looking forward to checking out this film. I actually just ordered the book via amazon. I had the pleasure of meeting Steve McQueen at the opening for his retrospective at the Art Institute in Chicago last year. He is definitely one of my favorite filmmakers who has brought a breath of fresh air to the craft of making movies.
Although his first 2 films Hungry and Shame were tough to digest, I enjoyed both films a lot. I’m curious to see how he pulls together a movie around such a historically tense moment in American history. Check out the trailer below. – LOM (@youngglobal)
This is the first single off of Afrojack’s new album featuring my good friend Spree Wilson. I’m so proud and excited for Spree right now. It is officially go time! Get familiar with Spree Wilson if you aren’t already. (more…)
