Creole food festival returns with female chef lineup

“The Creole Food Festival was created as a platform to showcase the talents of black and brown chefs. Since the culinary industry is dominated by men and whites, we intentionally showcased female chefs of color. In 2021, only 22.8% of chefs and head chefs were women, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. We want to showcase the multicultural salad that Miami has to offer, celebrating what brings us together through food,” says co-founder Fabrice Armand.
