If you love bakeries, no doubt you’ve heard about L’Appartement 4F, the Instagram sensation that went from at-home microbakery to a bustling spot in Brooklyn Heights with lines down the block. Fans have fallen in love with their croissants, pain au chocolat, baguettes, but also with the story of self-taught baker Gautier and school nurse Ashley Coiffard, the couple behind the creations.

Ashley and Gautier, in their very first podcast appearance, talk to host Kerry Diamond about falling in love, quitting their jobs, the challenging 11-month buildout of their bakery, and how their on- and off-line communities have contributed to their success. They also share their plans to open the second floor of L’Appartement 4F as a French bistro at night.

Chef Iliana Regan joins us to talk about her latest book, Fieldwork: A Forager’s Memoir, a moving story about her new life as proprietor, along with her wife Anna, of The Milkweed Inn, a getaway set on 150 remote acres of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The book is a follow-up to Iliana’s 2019 National Book Award long-listed memoir, Burn The Place, about her life as a chef. 

Fieldwork is a story about foraging—for fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds during the different seasons in the forest—but it’s also about emotional foraging, and understanding the unseen ties that bond family, food, flora, and fauna. Iliana wants people who read the book to think about their connections to the people and things they love. 

Join Radio Cherry Bombe host Kerry Diamond, Boca Chef Maria Mazon, and other special guests at the Graduate Hotel Tucson Thursday, Feb. 23rd, for a special night of networking, talks, panel, and snacks and drinks. Tickets are available here.

Justine Doiron never expected to be a TikTok star, let alone one specializing in food videos. A graduate of Cornell University’s famous hospitality program, she pursued a career in media and public relations and found her way in the fast-paced industry. Justine dabbled in TikTok when the app first emerged, figuring she’d need to know about it for work. Soon enough, she was one of the leading personalities in the TikTok food space. Justine joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her unique path, how being open about her eating disorder has helped her, the unique challenges faced by digital creatives, her upcoming cookbook, and more. 

Thank you to Käserei Champignon, producer and the maker of Cambozola cheese, for supporting this episode.

Michelle Tam was a mom and a pharmacist working the night shift at a local hospital when she had a food and fitness revelation that changed her life. She started working out and eating differently and felt so good, she told everyone. When her husband suggested she channel that enthusiasm into a blog, Nom Nom Paleo was born. Today, Michelle and her husband oversee their Nom Nom world, which includes a successful blog with free recipes, an app, a spice collection, and three bestselling books, including the latest, Nom Nom Paleo: Let’s Go. 

Michelle joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her life and love of food. She also shares the main goal behind Nom Nom Paleo: She wants people to think about and pay attention to how food makes them feel.

Cherry Bombe has a brand new podcast and we’re sharing the debut episode. The show is called She’s My Cherry Pie and it’s hosted by Jessie Sheehan, the author and recipe developer. Each week, Jessie talks to world-class bakers and pastry chefs about their lives, careers, and signature bakes. Jessie’s first guest is Claudia Fleming, the influential pastry chef and executive director of Daily Provisions. When Claudia put a chocolate-caramel tart on the menu of NYC’s Gramercy Tavern in the 1990s, she had no idea her creation would become one of the most copied restaurant desserts around. 

Want to bake along? Click here for Claudia’s chocolate caramel tart recipe from her newest cookbook, Delectable.
