As we drift into Autumn season, the good folks at Northside delivered their annual Taste Talks festival. This year the festival was curated by The Roots drummer ?uestlove. Filled with panels with talks about the future of food and of course some great food. I happened to attend the All-Star BBQ, which went down like this.
