SNACK: A bite-sized Q&A-with Jessie Kanelos Weiner.

Jessie Kanelos Weiner, a Paris based author, illustrator, bi-lingual stand-up comedian—and unapologetic trendy restaurant skeptic shares her Beef Bourguignon mishap-in this snack-sized Q&A.

I’m excited to finally meet Jessie in NYC at her book launch in a couple of weeks. Thinking in Watercolor: A Daily Practice to Unlock Your Creativity & Discover Your Inner Artist, comes out from Artisan on March 4th. Jessie also has a Substack: La Vie en Watercolor, A creative deep-dive into illustration, watercolor, and seeing like an artist. She’s authored multiple books and worked with a roster of world-class clients. I’m amazed that she does all that and is also a bilingual comedian. I’m excited to share her bite-sized Q&A!

Jessie mentions her favorite restaurant, L'ÉBAUCHOIR. Their roasted butternut with spinach pesto sounds like an absolute dream and makes me want to book a trip to Paris right now!

She also mentions that her must-have kitchen tool is the Oxo Good Grips Citrus Zester. So I figured I’d share the link in case you’re feeling zesty.
