The Dish, a new podcast from Michigan Public, brings you behind the scenes with Michigan's culinary talents as they prepare a dish that best represents their stories and work. Each chef we meet walks through their cooking process, and shares their personal story and drive for feeding others.
The show is hosted by Mercedes Mejia, director of Michigan Public's Stateside. The project has taken her all around the state, from Hazel Park, to Grand Rapids, to Ann Arbor. Preview some of the stops on The Dish Travel Map below.
The first three episodes drop Tuesday, November 26, with one new episode each Tuesday through December 17. Subscribe to The Dish today at the links above, or anywhere you listen to podcasts!
