Episode 1 Chef Kristi Brown

Chef Kristi Brown has spooned her way through the culinary industry for the past 28 years. Starting at a small café in downtown Seattle, Kristi has done just about everything from dishwasher/prep cook to running her own catering business for nearly a decade.   From the beginning, her vision was to focus on the art and experience of food through culinary activism.  A purpose powered by her mantra, “Everybody’s Gotta Eat!” Chef Kristi desires to build community through the cultivation of fresh food and fine cooking.

Currently, Chef Kristi is lovingly referred to as Chef Goddess of That Brown Girl Cooks!, a food, culture, and community hospitality group. Simply put, she calls it a “Culinary Collective.” TBGC! explores her inspirations, melds them with her experiences, and brings them back to the communities she serves. Debuting a variety of products, events, pop-ups, classes, and media presence, she hopes to engage and inspire community and connect people with a wholesome and nurturing lifestyle.

Kristi’s latest incarnation—That Brown Girl Cooks! is hospitality group  which includes: Catering , Bartending Catering, Pop-up restaurant events, food products with its inaugural creation—Black Eye Pea Hummus (currently available in several Seattle stores) and at long last a new restaurant venture - Communion Restaurant & Bar scheduled to open fall 2020.
