Bougie Bud + Breakfast with Writer Chala June

Different Leaf: the Podcast

Each summer, indulgent new cannabis, and dining-centric travel experience pop up all over the world. So what's a good place to start if you love to travel, appreciate really good food, and want cannabis to be at the center of your vacation experience?
In this episode, host Brit Smith delves into the so-called 'Bougiest 4/20 Experience in the US' with Different Leaf magazine's food and cannabis writer Chala June. Chala discusses their latest article for Different Leaf; "Bud and Breakfast," all about the experience of attending Cannescape's overnight dining event in California's Napa Valley, led by Chopped 420 champion Chef Solomon Johnson.
Chala talks about what it was like to be a part of Chef Johnson’s fine-infused dinner and breakfast, staying overnight at Dr. Wilkinson’s Backyard Resort and Mineral Spring in the heart of wine country, connecting with other like-minded stoners, and taking in the views, the pool, and the spa, all while the cannabis set in.
They also cover how Chef Solomon involves cannabis when creating and plating foods, how the energy of a dining experience changes when it includes an overnight stay, and what Chala sees as the future for high-end infused dining and travel experiences.
