An annual event on the calander I normally prepare for in #WashingtonDC by this time would have been #EmbassyChefChallenge

ECC is a competition for world-class embassy chefs that all embassies are invited to participate in. It presents a great opportunity to explore the cuisine and culture of participating embassies in DC.

ECC 2020 unfortunately is postponed due to #COVID-19. In this video I had the opportunity to chat with Linda Harper, founder of the ECC cultural culinary event held since 2011.

I recorded this video with my phone from the 11th edition of the event in 2019 during which Linda talked to TheAfricanDream LLC about the genesis of the event, a personal food experience with a Botswana staple, and the future...
