Our Hometown Hero Ericka from Brute Tenacity - a full time mom determined to honor her family and culture by way of recreating these experiences at home and in the kitchen. The hope is that they survive the test of time by being passed down from one generation to the next.
In Argentina, food and hospitality is a way of life.
For Gerard and his family, it’s always been the way of life.
Mom, a classically trained chef, Dad a grill master, and Max, a sommelier.
At home they hosted weekly asados that became the seed for their restaurant. Today, it is the epicenter of Argentine cuisine, wine and hospitality in Los Angeles. The kitchen was Gerard’s training ground. Now it’s his proving ground.

What exactly is vintage and does it matter at all? Well, let's take for example two wines, both made from the same vineyard, the same varietal, and made with the same techniques; that's right. they're going to taste quite different from one another. This ultimately affects the price, the availability, and whether or not you're buying a bottle or stocking up on an entire case. But why is that? Sommelier Juan Llamas guides us through the wonderful world of wine and helps break down the basics, which may seem confusing at first, but will leave you feeling confident next time you crack open that wine list to decide on dinner pairings for the table.

When some of our favorite grocery stores like Costco, Sprouts, and Walmart began to take shape, Lisa Cohen not only had a front row seat, she was helping to put in some of the first Candy, Fruit, & Nut programs in the United States. As a working mother and relentless entrepreneur, Lisa had to get creative and her family came along for the ride. These uphill battles. These challenges. These weren't obstacles. They were the gift of resilience.
After having conquered the retail landscape, Lisa now has the opportunity to fully focus her time and energy into subjects that she's absolutely passionate about. One of these is NFA Foods - a new company that's launched with the sole focus of reducing the world's dependance on Animal Agriculture.
