They are a content-creation duo who have changed the way we look at culinary storytelling.

On August 11^th and August 12th, Jack Goldburg and Liam Henning curated the ultimate food extravaganza, the Yes Chef Food Fest! Housed in Williamsburg Brooklyn, this sold-out festival featured over 20 of New York City’s most viral restaurants, Arthur & Sons, Bark Barbecue, Bodega SF, Charles Pan Fried Chicken, Chocolate on Tap, Chip City Cookies, Gotham Burger, Fat Fowl, Federoff’s Roast Pork, Mama’s Too, Mesiba, Milano Market, Mimi Chengs, Pecking House, Prince Street Pizza, Pig and Khao, Red Hook Lobster Pound, Soothr, Taqueria Ramirez, 10/10 Burger and Sushi by Bou! “We wanted to bring together all of the best food in New York, all in one place but we wanted to emphasize that a lot of restaurants get a lot of hype and they go viral on social media but they aren’t that great. So, we hand-selected these restaurants that have gone viral but are good,” said Henning.

Some of the other unique food experiences Yes Chef Food Fest offered throughout the festival included, a 300-pound Blue Fin Tuna Cutting Ceremony done by Sushi by Bou, Chip City Cookies also distributed 2,000 never before seen cookies to the first 1,000 people each day, Kured broke down a huge Parmigiano Reggiano wheel live for attendees to sample, Oyster XO served 900 fresh oysters via their mobile oyster shuckers and OceanBox provided 50 lbs of Shrimp Cocktail samples each day!

In addition to eating and sampling delicious foods, guests got to jam to some of New York’s best local DJs, LOCUS, CASAZEN, Jesse Rosegold, SO.LEE and J LAB.

“We definitely see ourselves taking this festival on the road to various cities like Austin and Miami, even global like Paris”, said Henning. Garnering 6,000 attendees, this year was the first year for the Yes Chef Food Festival but definitely won’t be the last. Stay tuned you may even get to experience it in a city near you!
