Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken were among the first women to conceptualize, own, and operate their own restaurant, beginning with City Café, in Los Angeles, in 1981. Their innovative ideas helped grow their business and expand their influence into food television and community advocacy for women chefs, LGBTQ rights, and global gastrodiplomacy. Join a discussion with these two remarkable women whose perspectives on changes in the food world can help us understand the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
