8th Annual BCA Food and Wine Experience
The Global Food & Wine Experience complements the yearly BCA Cultural Awareness Salute as another opportunity to advance diversity in the highest ranks of the culinary and beverage industry. At this event, aspiring culinary and beverage professionals learn about the industry; established restaurateurs, sommeliers, and importers network and display their achievements in the field with booths and tables from their businesses; and the BCA honors the dedication of pioneers of color in the wine industry with the Vision in Wine Award.
“The BCA is an incredible organization that offers opportunity to young ethnic adults that need and appreciate guidance in the culinary field. It’s my pleasure to be involved and teach these kids what they can’t learn in culinary school”, said Sue Torres owner, of Sueños Restaurant, after the last Global Food & Wine Experience at the Tavern on the Green in New York City. A large part of the mission of the BCA focuses on making young students of color aware of the endless career opportunities in the culinary and hospitality fields. “This event is incredibly important to increase the awareness of these opportunities within the wine and beverage industry. Students gearing to start a career in the hospitality industry need to be aware of this,” said Peter Morales, President and owner of 57 Main Street Imports.
We interview Neely’s BBQ, Madiba Restaurant and Moolife Group (featuring the Sunburnt Calf). The food at this event was incredible. Well worth the price of admission. Could not get enough of these three restaurants food. Wanted to steal all the chutney from Madiba, Pulled Pork from Neely’s and the sliders where crazy!!!!!

Maria G.’s Guide to the NYC – Bier International – Harlem
Bier International is filled with communal wooden tables—its minimalist white walls and towering glass windows bring the street inside the restaurant space, making every meal a celebratory neighborhood affair. Hip Harlemites and yuppies with baby strollers share bar space. The occasional student wanders in while waning sunlight fills the restaurant with a warm glow. As the night progresses, the decibels climb over Kiss concert levels, and the chance student settles into this new New York groove. The Harlem dining revolution is happening here, in this intersection of soul food devotees and Whole Foods fanatics.
