Sisters Danielle and Gabrielle Davenport are the cofounders of BEM, a bookstore and community space for Black food literature.

It’s so fun to have Danielle and Gabrielle in the studio to nerd out on food literature, building a family business together, and more.
Also on the show, it’s the return of Three Things, where Aliza and Matt talk about what is exciting them in the world of restaurants, cookbooks, and the food world as a whole. On this episode: Cake Zine x Seeyousoon hosted a pop-up, Breadivore is doing really great bread and viennoiserie in South Brooklyn, and some thoughts on Girl Scout cookie season. Also: A review of Graydon Carter’s memoir, When the Going Was Good, checking in at Wu’s Wonton King, The Studio is a great new show on Apple TV+.
