The Atlanta Press Club had a spectacular Newsmaker event earlier this week, with a great conversation between ATL Airport GM Ricky Smith and Delta Airlines CEO Ed Bastian, moderated by AJC’s Emma Hurt. 

And yes, I pulled your favorite future aviator, #PassportShawty, straight outta class to meet Ed Bastian, because of course I did. 👧🏽👩🏽‍✈️🛫✈️🥰

Whenever I get a shout-out like this, I flash back to working in restaurants — serving, bartending, managing, whatevering — while freelancing and trying to find a job, or just decide if I should keep trying to get anyone to hire me to write… well, anything at all. 

Food journalism has traditionally been a highly gate-kept beat. Folks like me have had to prove more than others, just to be taken seriously enough to get an assignment in the first place. 

So when I say I appreciate pervaizistan, summerluo28, wabecitylights and bonappetitmag, I mean it. Thank y’all. ✊🏾 2025-08-22 22:07:50 Whenever I g.. 0 -100% 1 -92%

This was my 4th year at #TheFamilyReunion. There’s really nothing like it. Hat-tip to Kwame Onwuachi, Sheila Johnson, Food & Wine and everyone else — especially big shouts to all the incredible chefs, staff, media, speakers and cool-ass people who work the event to make it amazing. Seriously some of my favorite folks. 2025-08-20 21:46:39 This was my 4th year .. 172 +28% 17 +37%
You already know why I write the strip club stories around here if you subscribe to UATL’s weekly newsletter (no really; it’s the most legitimate reason a journalist can have).

TONIGHT: RSVP now to attend the FREE PRX Podcast Creator Summit tonight, with my great friend Kyle Tibbs Jones from bittersoutherner, podcaster Anney Reese and writer/performer Lauren Vogelbaum. We’re going to talk food storytelling, and I promise it’ll be as good as gravy and entertaining as an East Point dinner party with good wine (although I don’t know that there will be wine… unless I sneak some in… 😉

This is me and my friend Wendell Brock. I first got to hang out with Wendell at an event for Southern food writers, when the idea of writing seriously about food was kind of a fantasy. As we became friends he’s been incredibly generous with his time, opinions (and Wendell indeed DOES have thoughts), and his massive collection of cookbooks. Yesterday he summoned me for a new bounty, and I’m kinda like a kid in a magical kitchen today. 

If you know me you know I don’t just write about food; I cook all the time and I worked in lots of restaurants trying to get my career going in my 20s. Gifts like cookbooks from longtime friends like Wendell are more than written recipes and stories — they’re ways to pass on admiration, love and respect for people who may not look like you but believe in the power of food to connect us all. 

Read all of Wendell’s work wherever it’s published. He’s one of our best people. 2025-06-28 21:33:36 This is m.. 218 +62% 19 +53%
The James Beard Awards are an entire wave. I needed that. Thanks to all the good folks that kept me dancing, laughing, yapping, eating, drinking, clapping and celebrating all weekend long.

Let’s talk fatherhood. This young lady is no longer the age she was in this photo, but it’s one of my favorite photos of her. My daughter is the person most responsible for making me a better man. It’s hard to say how much she’s changed, challenged, inspired and influenced me. 

I sang this song to her when she was a baby and it still reminds me of her whenever I hear it. Thank you Sienna for being my little wonderwall. Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there who know what I’m talking about. 2025-06-16 02:00:04 Let’s talk fa.. 96 -29% 7 -44%
Ran into DRES a few weeks ago. He had some incredibly positive energy, despite going through a lot with his health lately. I remember him being more concerned about how I was doing, then telling our guy Will he was proud of having seen me hustle over the years. Then he said “Just remember, YOU are the source.” He said that last part like three times so I’m inclined to believe he meant it. 

I’ll remember it, and all the years Atlanta had with DRES tha BEATnik. Rest in peace! 2025-06-10 04:09:48 Ran into DRES a f.. 217 +62% 15 +21%

The great folks at Bon Appétit recently invited your homie to pick 8 spots with lemon pepper wings — probably ATL’s favorite signature food item — worthy of a story. Big shouts to elliottjeromebrownjr for snapping pics of these… well, you hear Maxwell.

Mom, the hardest working person I’ve ever met, would have been 74 today.

Anybody who met Mom would understand what I mean when I say I wish everybody met Mom. She was everything — a great friend, sister, cousin, aunt, teacher, professor, city planner, neighbor, advisor, advocate, defender, supporter, fighter, motivator, volunteer, researcher, strategist, cook, style icon, designer, shopper, art collector, Anita Baker/Dionne Warwick/Luther Vandross/Patti LaBelle/Mahalia Jackson/Gladys Knight/George Michael/Salt-N-Pepa fan, doyenne, matriarch, grandmother, and of course, an unbelievably wonderful mother.

She’d be so incredibly proud of her family and friends for continuing to be great people in her absence. I also think all of us still feel her presence. She did a lot — it’s not a stretch to say the city of Huntsville, the campus of Alabama A&M University, Big Brothers Big Sisters, First Missionary Baptist Church and many other organizations are better today because of what Dr. Wilson did to make a difference in her community.

More than anything, she’d be ecstatic about her granddaughter. She was also very proud her only kid was a pretty good dad.

Everybody who knew Mom misses Mom. But she left behind strong ties that continue to bind the community that loved her. I haven’t had a single sad moment today remembering her, and I know she would expect all of us to carry on in good spirits.

Happy Birthday, Dr. Constance Jordan Wilson! We’re still making you proud ’round here. 2025-05-02 06:54:30 Mom, th.. 207 +54% 23 +85%

A few pics from the last few days and weeks, with some great people I’m too tired to tag at the moment… Will update! Life is busy and sometimes crazy but life is also what you make it and who you make it with. I’ve got a life I’m thankful for.🤘🏾
