Have you eaten catfish and waffles? Turtle soup? As we now enjoy an enormous variety of food, these dishes are part of Philly’s culinary history. Origins of the city’s food traditions are rooted in the cultural melting pot that includes the African diaspora and the Pennsylvania Dutch. Chef & Culinary Educator Joy Parham and Elwood Restaurant Chef & Owner Adam Diltz share traditional New Year's traditions and explain why the cultural foods we eat connect us to the regions in which we live. Then, we take a holiday shopping tour of some of West Philly and Germantown’s Black-and Brown-owned businesses.
