“If you look at who still holds the majority of executive chef jobs and top management positions, it’s not a very diverse picture,” says Joanne Canady-Brown, Founder, Head Baker, The Gingered Peach, Owner, Melba Ice Creamery, Rojo's Roastery. “And there’s often pushback when you talk about DEI, which makes no sense in an industry like ours that desperately needs labor. As leaders, we need to take more time, look harder and challenge what we think makes a great employee. And we should revisit that constantly because our industry, employees and customers are changing fast. There are people out there who may not fit the stereotype of employees traditionally filling certain roles, but who have the skills and the drive to fill them if given a chance. It’s on us to open our eyes and make the correlations.”

“Even after multiple Beard nominations, I had trouble attracting top job candidates," says Cheetie Kumar, and Co-owner, Ajja. "In part, because what’s considered and what’s taught in culinary schools has long been Eurocentric. That culture drives a certain price point, which in turn supports higher revenues and the ability to afford advantages like better locations. When Garland opened, we heard comments like, ‘Why would I pay this much for Indian food?’ We weren’t even an Indian restaurant: We were a thoughtfully sourced, local farm-to-table restaurant with inspiration from many parts of Southeast Asia. It took a while to crack that .”

Today, Kumar sees conversations around food and foodways evolving rapidly. Read more about Kumar’s story, here.
