Whoa nice man one thing i love about philly, in particular, there are amazing dancers in the underground. Part of the mission is, can we create some kind of sustainable work for these artists who dont get recognized . Sibley scoles is it cool to be able to have this outdoors area .

Youre not an artist yourself. Where did that love spark . Well, i became a part of the Art Community by being interested in. Its why i started the blog to begin with 12 years ago now. Philadelphia is a city for artists, a city of murals, a city of public art, a city of great galleries and museums. And i wanted to use the talents i have to continue to bring attention to them in the ways that i can. You cant do anything alone. Sibley scoles no. You need community. 3, 4, thats it.

[music playing] Sibley Scoles i once read cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all. And someone who fully embodies that notion is the latest star to emerge from phillys outstanding culinary landscape, twotime james beard nominee, chef Amanda Shulman. Amanda Amanda Shulman hi, sibley. Hi Sibley Scoles an experience at her place is like going to a fun dinner party thats serving some pretty serious food. What she cooks is what you get, and you always go home full. What shall i do . We are finishing up some prep for lunch. Peeling the skin off of these cherry tomatoes, and then theyre going to get marinated in this bright dijon vinaigrette, and they, like, pop and burst, and super juicy. Backtoback best emerging [music playing] how did we get there . Honestly, i dont know how we got there. [laughter] this was actually supposed to be a popup in the middle of the pandemic. And its cool that this small little thing were doing here is resonating with so many people. I feel like what you just described is going to be a Big Conversation at the meal that were going to have today with everyone thats joining us. On the guest list are a few Close Friends who, along with amanda, have catapulted philly to the top of our nations food scene. James beard awardwinning chad williams, nok suntaranon, and ellen yin. I am so happy that this year i know youre all so busy. I love to take a break. [laughter] and we never get to sit down together. Never. Never. Sibley scoles so this is very special. Cheers. Amanda shulman first, were going to start with a tomato melon set. They are going to go over whipped cheese. That is going to be a spanish cana de oveja. Its so pretty. Amanda shulman we got shrimp cucumbers and ranch, soft shell crabs coming from maryland. Sibley scoles oh, wow. Oh my god, the cheese. The cheese is melting in your mouth. Mm. Sibley scoles philadelphia is being recognized with the james beard sweeping it for 2023. All of you, outstanding restaurateur, outstanding restaurant, chef, best chef. This is like an oscar, right . For an actor. Ellen yin philadelphia has been growing as a culinary city and destination for 20some years. We all love it, and we all believe that it has been worldclass for a really long time. That really gave me a huge sense of pride. Hey, can you set up a truffle plate . Man friday, saturday, sunday, the Philadelphia Restaurant in a small townhome in rittenhouse. Im from here. I grew up here. Seeing the city finally get its recognition is incredible. Sibley scoles this is some of the best gnocchi ive ever had. Oh, my goodness. How you doing . Oh, wow, i am doing amazing now. I experienced fork, by the way. Mmhmm. Sibley scoles i almost ate that entire fish. It is so good. Well, thank you. Fork is our longestrunning restaurant. A. Kitchen weve been there for 10 years, and high street hoagies weve been there for five years. And our new restaurant will be about the bread and about the grains. I love carbs, so. [laughs] for me, when i heard they announced my name, its just like, i did it, i did it, i did it. And next thing i thought was like, whos gonna be next . I want this to stay in philly. Oh, yeah, for sure. I am greedy. Im selfish. Sibley scoles oh, i love thai food. Does this look like thai food to you . Sibley scoles no. Thats gorgeous. It is. Just like us. [laughter] yes for me, as an immigrant that landed in philadelphia, this city has just welcomed me with open arms. The recognition means i did something that i could give back to the city. Its beyond dream. A lot of people would say, why not new york . I know its close, but you know, its always recognized. New york always is. But what is it so special about philadelphia, where its like, no, i want to stay here, this is where i want to grow . Honestly, the price point of new york is so much higher, from a rent perspective, that the stakes feel a lot riskier to try something new. Nok suntaranon we are not in new york. Of course, because we are not new york, we are philadelphia, we do what we do here. Everyone that walks through our door feels like theyre welcome. Theyre part of our life. Theyre part of our business. And its just nothing but love. Will you marry me . 1,000 times, yes. [laughter] you knew everyone at your restaurant. Everyone knew you. You offered me a ride home. You just met me. I was like, this woman is great above and beyond. Yeah, thats community, though, and philadelphia owns that. And you mean it. Its not fake. Philly is very authentic. Yes yes.

Dove men with 72 hour protection, plus care for your skin. So you can forget your underarms and focus on being unforgettable. Dove men. Forgettable underarms. Unforgettable you. Dove men. Sibley scoles shopping just does not stop in philly, because here at the yowie hotel, not only do you get a great stay there are 13 different suites, not one is identical you can literally purchase anything thats in the room, including the paint on the walls. This couch it could be yours. I love this. I might need this as well. From the plants to the art on the walls, which is from a majority of artists out here in philly. You can go down to the cafe, or you can check out the catalog. They have everything there for you. Everybody likes to keep things local and for the people out here. And for the artists, phillys crane arts in Northern Liberties has five floors of affordable studios and workspaces for creativebased businesses to produce and thrive. Prajje, were here oh, welcome to atelier prajje oscar. I walked into the crane Arts Building, and i was already impressed with how that structure is. And then, we walk in here. Uhhuh. Sibley scoles it brings happiness. I cant stop smiling. My teeth are out the entire time that im here, looking at all of your pieces. Its beautiful. Prajj oscar yeah, the crane Arts Building is this incubator for creativity. There are tons of galleries in the first floor. This space here allowed me to have both the atelier, both the showroom in one place. You can purchase pieces in here. Youre creating right in the back. Youve got the mural for your grandmother. Prajje barbie is in the building. Season 20 project runway all stars, you are a fan favorite. [laughs] it always shocks me when i hear that. It started from season 19. I was new, i was young. I didnt know what to expect. This time, i wasnt there for validation. Sibley scoles right. Prajj oscar i knew i was prajje oscar. Im a professor here. Im a creative director at philly fashion week. Lets keep it moving to the next. Right. Prajj oscar this collection, the inspiration was basquiat, the 90s, the streetwear, the mix, meld, the gender fluid. It is both a store display, but an exhibit as well. Its a justice piece. I am about the change, because of my upbringing and where i come from. Its very hard for me not to look back and really speak for those who need a voice. If youre not part of the solution, youre part of the problem. Sibley scoles another brand thats part of the solution is grant blvd, located just down the hall on the first floor of crane arts. I love the piece that you have on right now. Its so easy. This is two pieces. Its a broad pant, a tunicstyle top, also has some pockets. I love some pockets. I mean, dont we all love pockets . Im mad these pants that i have on are not from you, because theres no pockets. You are the first blackowned b Corp Business in north america in the fashion industry. Thats correct. That is a beautiful long title. There is a lot behind it. What does that mean, exactly . B corps are companies who have really done a deep dive into their practices to submit receipts on how theyre thinking about putting people and planet in alignment with profit. I was eyeing her as soon as i walked in the store. Kimberly mcglonn the hope for us as a company is that we can convert more people into thinking about how do we take care of people, how do we take care of the planet, but also to let people walk into a room and not necessarily make a splash, but take up some space. We like to take up space. [laughter] thats something that im hearing from every is it philadelphian . Right . This is the word we use . You all own it. Prajj oscar yeah. Theres no apologies. Theres no ifs, buts about it. This is just whats going to happen. [laughs] Kimberly Mcglonn the city of philadelphia has such a long history of not being afraid to be the first one to do what is the next best thing. You know, first zoo, first library, so much of the fabric of the city is ripe for reinvention and for resistance. The way they receive art and the way they envision the art is completely different. I have a motto go down the runway in a full latex suit in a Bomber Jacket and a fencing mask. New york probably would have hated that. Like, what is it . This makes no sense, blah, blah, blah. But here, theyre like, oh, thats dope. Sibley scoles youre not in a box. Prajj oscar no, theres no box out here. Its freedom. Detect this living with hiv, robert learned he can stay undetectable with fewer medicines. Thats why he switched to dovato. Dovato is a complete hiv treatment for some adults. No other complete hiv pill uses fewer medicines to help keep you undetectable than dovato. Detect this marnina learned that most hiv pills contain 3 or 4 medicines. Dovato is as effective with just 2. If you have hepatitis b, dont stop dovato without talking to your doctor. Dont take dovato if youre allergic to its ingredients or taking dofetilide. This can cause serious or lifethreatening side effects. If you have a rash or allergic reaction symptoms, stop dovato and get medical help right away. Serious or lifethreatening lactic acid buildup and liver problems can occur. Tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems, or if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or considering pregnancy. Dovato may harm an unborn baby. Most common side effects are headache, nausea, diarrhea, trouble sleeping, tiredness, and anxiety. Detect this you could stay undetectable with fewer medicines. Ask your doctor about dovato. You could stay undetectable with fewer medicines. Christian crosby look at the music thats come out of this city. You have the roots, you have jill scott.
