Foodie and the Beast - Oct. 9, 2022

Hosted by David and Nycci Nellis. On today’s show: • Bodegas Tempore Wines is an independent brand of four organic and vegan wines produced in Spain’s Aragón region. Alejandra Sarmiento of Bodegas Tempore joins us long-distance and Eric Platt, president of Artisans and Vines, the Bodegas distributor, is in studio to fill our cups with Bodegas Tempore Wine;. • Has it been five years already? Yep – and so, the 5th Annual, DMV Black Restaurant Week starts November 6th, Dr. Erinn Tucker-Oluwole, the event’s cofounder, and Chef Jeffeary (Jeff) Miskiri is the Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Miskiri Hospitality Group, an inspiring collective of Black, family- and woman-owned products and restaurants in and around DC are here with all the details. • Next is a story of starting small and making it big - very big. Dario Wolos is the founder of Tacombi, a food and beverage taqueria and consumer products that started as a make-shift food stand on a Mexican beach. Today, Tacombi has grown to 14 locations in New York, Miami and Washington D.C., and has 75 more planned out. Dario Wolos joins us later in the show. A crisp, full-bodied rosè in a plastic bottle? What!? Born in the pandemic, NautiLife brings you a great potable in an unbreakable bottle. Annapolitans Marina Anglim and Tracy Seybert founded the company and, with help from the omnipresent—and possibly omniscient-- Eric Platt of Artisans and Vine, they are taking off like a rocket.
