On a special episode of Taste Matters, guest host Karen Karp is joined by President/CEO of The New York State Restaurant Association and George Weld, Chef/Owner of Egg in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

This program was sponsored by Cain Vineyard & Winery.


“75% of restaurants today will either go out business or change hands.”

“There is not an industry I know today that gives back to neighborhoods like restaurants do.”

–Rick Sampson, President/CEO of the New York State Restaurant Association

“The idea of local food is really a way of wrapping up a trend towards good food in a recognizable package.”

“When you come in to work as a dishwasher, prep cook or a server – you’re doing work that’s genuinely important.”
