LS: Now, of course, I have to say congratulations and all of your success. 2022 has definitely been an amazing year for you. But most importantly, congratulations on the release of your new cookbook, Eat Plants B*tch. Has putting out a cookbook always been a dream of yours or was it something that just evolved over time?

PC: I’ve always loved to cook, I have never been a chef and yes, it evolved over time. I love cooking for myself and I love cooking vegan food for my friends and family. So it was right time and you know a time in life everything is all about where opportunity meets timing, right? And the timing couldn’t be any better. I have this booming business, everybody’s coming to the restaurant, the lines are down the block and people are falling in love with the experience. I’m like, Alright, I need to be able to take this experience home, because I want them to still have that natural high when they get into their own comfort zone and that natural high is “Eat Plants Bitch! It’s not just for the vegan, this is for the person who just likes to eat food and they can try these recipes and not feel like they have to compromise the things that they like. That’s why I created it and I’m so happy. The book is a beautiful book! It isn’t just beautiful recipes, but the aesthetic of it, the storyline, you get a little bit about how I came to be this vegan media maven. It’s just amazing how all of this came from an idea and conceptualized itself to manifest into a whole cookbook that’s in Barnes and Noble and on Amazon. It’s everywhere that everybody can purchase and get their hands on and that feels really good to me!
