Episode Synopsis


Hosted by David and Nycci Nellis.  On today’s show: ·        Russ Smith and Cecy Linzey, founders of the Mr. & Mrs. Bourbon Co., are in. Theirs is one of only a few Black- and female-owned bourbon companies in the U.S., and they have quite a story to tell -- and a few bourbons to pour;                                                                                                                                                                                        ·        Our old buddy, Chef Matt Adler, late of Caruso’s and now the executive chef at D.C.’s Cucina Morini, serving up Southern Italian and Sicilian delights;                                                                                                                 ·        Aynae Simmons and Leticia Engel-Cobian with Visit Montgomery are with us. You will definitely want to visit the Tastemakers Trail in Montgomery County. It features two dozen craft beverage producers, including wineries, breweries, cideries -- and a meadery;                                                                                                                    ·        Paul Taylor and Sherra Kurtz are co-owners of Your Only Friend, an out-of-the-ordinary cocktail and sandwich concept in Shaw; ·        Originally from Berkeley, Leo and Oliver Kremer are the founders of the Dos Toros Taqueria chain. When they moved to the East Coast, they realized San Francisco Mission-style burritos were tough to find. Enter the first Dos Toros location in New York City’s Union Square in 2009. Cut to now: there are 15 Dos Toros spots in NYC, and (drum roll, please) two here in DC. The Kremer Brothers join us with all the details.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
