This week Marc is out, so we invited former guest Mara Whack to join us as a co-host. We spent an action packed hour getting to know Chef Yia Vang of Union Hmong Kitchen, TPT’s show Relish, and podcast Hmonglish. Of course we talk about food, but also learn about Hmong culture and history, and the importance of communication and grace.

A few of chef Yia’s accolades:
