Chef and Culinary Instructor April DuBose – Teaching, Nostalgia and the Loneliness of Entrepreneurship

On the Chefs Without Restaurants podcast this week I have chef and culinary instructor April DuBose. She’s currently the culinary director and instructor at Baltimore Outreach Services in Baltimore, Maryland, a nonprofit shelter for women and their children. The culinary arts training program there is eight weeks long, and focuses on basic cooking and kitchen skills, as well as sanitation food safety. It prepares women for the basic skills needed for employment in a kitchen at the prep cook level. Previously, April was a culinary instructor at Lincoln Culinary where she received the presidents excellence award for instruction, and she was the culinary teacher of the year. She’s also been a forklift driver and bounty hunter. In our discussion we talk about teaching, internships and staging, comfort food and nostalgia, sharing recipes, and the loneliness of entrepreneurship. If you like the show, click the subscribe button, and if you listen on Apple podcasts, I’d love it if you could write and review the show. ==========April DuBose ==========April’s Instagram https://www.instagram.com/duboseapril/Baltimore Outreach Services http://www.baltimoreoutreach.org/programs/services-for-women/================CONNECT WITH US================SUPPORT US ON PATREONGet the Chefs Without Restaurants NewsletterVisit Our Amazon Store (we get paid when you buy stuff)Connect on ClubhouseCheck out our websites (they have different stuff) https://chefswithoutrestaurants.org/ & https://chefswithoutrestaurants.com/Like our Facebook pageJoin the private Facebook groupJoin the conversation on TwitterCheck our Instagram picsFounder Chris Spear’s personal chef business Perfect Little Bites https://perfectlittlebites.com/Watch on YouTubeIf you want to support the show, our Venmo name is ChefWoRestos and can be found at https://venmo.com/ChefWoRestos.
