More bagels from Allie Boy’s and a big event with African flavor

Anyone who loves Allie Boy’s Bagelry & Luncheonette will be happy to know its second location is now open on Farwell Avenue — a space that will make it possible for the owners to invest in some bigger equipment. And bigger equipment means more bagels.Speaking of “more,” there’s a news item that deserves some serious attention due to the ambition on display. Flavors of Africa & Diaspora: Best Chefs Wisconsin is an event recently announced by Ubuntu MKE, Wisconsin's first cross-cultural incubator lab for building an inclusive food community. This gala and competition set for Nov. 10 at the Milwaukee Athletic Club isn’t your average culinary-themed get-together. Yes, there's a tasting and a competitive aspect. But there's also an eight-week learning experience prior to the event, during which 40 chefs, restaurateurs, bartenders and other food folks learn about everything from food literacy to cultural sensitivity.Also in this episode: If you’ve been out and about in the area, you’ve probably come across the Yummy Bones food truck. Their barbecue based out of Port Washington will soon find a home at Crossroads Collective, where they’ll take over the stall currently occupied by Ready to Roll.  Dan Jacobs has never shied away from tackling big issues. Now, our favorite Top Chef is using the higher profile he built on the show to bring attention to the climate’s impact on the food industry. Produced and edited by Marcus Doucette
