Recipe of Love: Kaye by Alliance Theatre published on 2023-02-08T19:35:18Z Kaye Dinero Owner of I Love Food ATL A lifelong foodie, Kaye shares her evolution from eater to food influencer when she realized her Instagram photos could help satiate hungry Atlantans. In this portrait, Kaye talks about the vital role her platform played to sustain local Black and queer-owned food establishments and food trucks during the COVID-19 pandemic. "When someone cooks for me, that’s like the ultimate thing to do. It’s like a love language." – Kaye Dinero Recipe of Love is a community portrait project that draws inspiration from The Hot Wing King to spotlight five Black and queer-owned restaurants, food trucks and food platforms in Atlanta, Georgia. The participants in this exhibit describe food as a language of love and as a binding agent for the Black and queer community. Each profile explores the way kitchens catalyze intimate, familial, and communal relationships that can reclaim history and self-worth to move our communities toward a more satiated feeling of belonging. The exhibit pairs portraiture with audio interviews. It is available digitally and on display in the North Alcove Lobby in the Memorial Arts Building during the run of The Hot Wing King.
