About Event

What does it actually take to build something in food and bev? This edition takes into the early mornings (and late nights) of some of our most beloved local bakers.

We're joined by Josey from Josey Baker Bread, who has been baking bread through JBB since 2011 and co-owns The Mill which recently lived through a fire that closed down operations but in less than two weeks, they were back, baking some of our favorite breads. We’re also joined by Azikiwee Anderson “Z” from Rize Up Bakery. Z started making sourdough during quarantine but within a year, his backyard ovens couldn’t keep up with the demand of his OG sourdough. Never not busy, Z is writing his first cookbook and working to open the doors of Rize’s first brick and mortar.

Hosted by the founder of Showoff, Margarita Florez Vasconcelos and friends, this series is about the origin stories nobody tells and the people who showed up when it mattered. Conversation, Q&A, then stay for snacks and the conversations that happen after.

Vibes: Unvarnished, founder-y
