Chef Greg's Recipes
In February we launched Black Voices, which celebrates R/A's Black community by amplifying their voices all year long. Chef Greg shared his story and today we are proud to highlight his recipes here. 格雷格:“My entire life I have always been around food, but my journey in the food industry started 17 years ago. I started as a Dishwasher in a well-known chain restaurant, then quickly moved up: Prep Cook, 线做, 团队领导, BOH Kitchen Manager, then a Frontline Hourly team member for their NYC location. Once I began working at R/A in 2017, I worked diligently and caught the attention of many people who helped move me up through the organization. Within 8 months I was promoted to a Sous Chef position in Reston, VA. My favorite part of working with the team is being able to create healthy cultural recipes daily alongside individuals who are just as passionate about food as I am. Soul food ties me back to my roots as an African American Chef. There's a myth that soul food isn't the healthiest of cuisines. But there are healthier ways to cook it."
“鸡 & Waffles: A southern classic breakfast, lunch, or dinner dish. Chicken and waffles became very popular during the Harlem Renaissance. My grandmother showed me how to cook soul food dishes at a very young age so that in her words, 'I wouldn't have to depend on anybody to do it for me.'"
