Professional Critic "Infuriated" by St. Louis | Darius Cooks
This Isn't My Degree
09/22/23 • 65 min
The city of St. Louis has been on fire this weekend because of Darius Cooks. He travels from city to city and hosts dinner events in each location, and this previous weekend he was in St. Louis. He was infuriated and saddened by the food scene in our city, and gave some honest criticisms, and some took them very personally.
I knew the perfect place to take him to, Rated Test Kitchen, which is run by Juwan Rice. I had him on the show a few weeks back. The entire premise of the concept is to bring out your inner food critic, and he was the only person I had confidence in to actually receive a positive rating from Darius.
I told Darius that we could film my podcast at Rated and not only dive deeper into his story and the issues with St. Louis, but to also have an insightful conversation over, what I hoped would be, good food.
People that tuned into his live stream had nothing but positive comments. Will this interaction change Darius’s views on St. Louis, though?

From starting her own business to putting a spotlight on culture and focusing on building the future of St. Louis, I can't wait to see everything she will do.
