Picking up where Northside Media’s annual festival left off, Taste Talks brings innovators from various fields — including music, art, film, design and tech — together with luminaries from the food and restaurant world, to talk about what’s new and what’s next, and expound on any and all topics related to taste. Join host Sarah Zorn as she kicks off each episode with a rundown of the week’s breaking, national food news, chats with game-changing tastemakers and disruptors leading the way in their respective industries, and finally, concludes with a series of restaurant recommendations, that correspond to the topic of the day!

Sarah Zorn is an honest to goodness Brooklyn native, and the bonafide product of a family that started planning their next meal as soon as they finished their last. Interacting with chefs, farmers, restaurant owners, food artisans and industry tastemakers is a daily part of Zorn’s job description, as the food editor for Brooklyn Magazine and the L Magazine and the Editorial Director at RestaurantGirl.com. She’s also the author of the Brooklyn Chef’s Table cookbook, which explores the evolution of Brooklyn’s food scene through the stories of (and recipes from) 60 influential area restaurants.
