female chefs

Vegan chef and entrepreneur Chloe Coscarelli is championing women in the food industry, encouraging "aspiring female chefs" to pursue their dreams and "Don't let ANYONE hold you back," she wrote in an Instagram post. Coscarelli shared photos of herself with other female chefs appearing at the recent NYC Wine & Food Festival, where she said, "I stand with my sisters." This was the first-ever event dedicated to celebrating female chefs. In the post, Coscarelli discussed her own experience with the male-dominated food industry."People have told me that I don't look like a chef, don't talk like a chef, and that I'm not tough enough to ever be a chef," she wrote. She then spoke on behalf of her female chef counterparts, promising "we can & we will & you'll be sorry you ever doubted us."
