Native America Calling: The Menu
Friday, January 27, 2023
The Menu: James Beard nominations, eggs, and a new café
Indigenous chefs Nephi Craig (White Mountain Apache), Justin Pioche (Diné), Jaren Bates (Navajo), and Sherry Pocknett (Wampanoag) are semi-finalists for the James Beard Foundation award for best regional chef.
ɁálɁal Café opened up at the urban housing complex recently opened by the Chief Seattle Club and it’s turning out a fresh line of healthy Indigenous menu items. And, as the much of the country grapples with an egg supply problem, some Native egg farmers are sitting pretty.
Friday on Native America Calling, Andi Murphy serves up a new helping of our regular feature The Menu.
