Five Boroughs Food Talk: Sugar

New York City has a serious legacy of sweets, from being the birthplace of the Oreo to calling itself home to the infamous Cronut™. Host Gabriella Gershenson has assembled a sweet panel of experts to explore the sugar high past and present, and to get to know some of the masters working their sugary magic in the city today.

Panelists include:
Dominique Ansel, creator of the Cronut™
Charlotte Druckman, author of Skirt Steak
Darra Goldstein, founding Editor of Gastronomica and Editor in Chief of the forthcoming Oxford Companion to Sugar and Sweets
Jacques Torres, Mr. Chocolate himself

Gabriella Gershenson is the food features editor at Every Day with Rachel Ray magazine. She was formerly senior editor at Saveur, and prior to that, edited the dining section at Time Out New York magazine. Her articles have appeared in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, San Francisco Chronicle, The Boston Globe and many other publications. She’s been a regular guest on WOR’s Food Talk with Mike Colameco and NYC TV’s Eat Out New York with Kelly Choi, and appeared on the Food Network shows 24 Hour Restaurant Battle and The Best Thing I Ever Ate.
