Check out and cop tickets to the 5TH ANNUAL #BIGGIEDAY CULINARY COMPETITION being held this Saturday, May 18: www.yostayhungry.com ____________________ Reposted from @pauleannareid - "My newest article is live on @forbes and it’s 🔥🔥🔥YO STAY HUNGRY is a culinary experience that fuses food, beverage, and hip-hop. I sat down with its founder Syreeta Gates. A natural innovator, in 2015 she found herself toying with the idea of creating something around art, hip-hop and food. She took to Google to find out if anyone had began creating in that space, and when she found that nobody had, she decided she would fill the gap herself. This organization has hosted more than 8 competitions, served more than 3,500 attendees, featured more than 60 judges from the music and culinary arts industries, and awarded two competitors with the “Chef Curry with the Pot” scholarship—an award named in memory of one of Gates’ late friends, Terrell Curry and a clever reference to a Drake lyric. Here's the story of how Yo Stay Hungry continues to inspire youth in their community.
