Ep. 45: It's All About Food-The Great Connector

So Much More, A Mall of America® Podcast

Stephanie March knows about food and the local dining scene. It has been a significant part of her life and career. As Executive Editor of New Media + Food at Mpls. St. Paul Magazine, March has a reputation of telling a delightful story, especially when it comes to food. Along with host Jill Renslow and co-host Carrie Charleston, this episode is packed with stories about how food is the great connector.

In addition to her outstanding writing, March also co-hosts a live broadcast/podcast about cooking, travel, eating + food culture called The Weekly Dish. She has worked in the hospitality industry early in her career and was a restaurant consultant. March and Charleston share how they first connected in the restaurant scene and how their relationship has grown.

This episode also talks about the adventures of dining at Mall of America as well as the Minnesota State Fair and other Twin Cities locations. They look at what is hot and what’s missing in the dining scene. All three share how food has helped shape who they are today. And they talk about their can’t-miss dining experiences. March also talks about her newest project, Pickle by Steph March on Substack.
