INTRODUCTION - The Food Origins Podcast

The podcast was created because of my passion and experience with food. I want talk to people from many areas of life about their origin stories. What they ate growing up, some of their culture, favorite foods, recipes, family traditions, awesome tools, best & worst restaurant experiences any where in the world and of course; their current projects & businesses.

Food connects us all, so let’s learn more about it together.

HOST - DAVE SANDS

Dave was born and raised in San Francisco, CA.  Growing up Japanese and Caucasian , Dave was exposed to many cultures and cuisines immediately. Watching and learning from his late Mother set the seeds of his pure joy of cooking. As a graduate of the City College of San Francisco’s Hotel & Restaurant program, Dave cooked professionally all over the San Francisco Bay Area for five years working in numerous restaurants, catering and corporate food services. With some unfortunate burn out, Dave went on work as a service advisor for a high end car dealer. While working there, he transitioned to one of his dream jobs as a San Francisco Police Officer. After 15 years in Law Enforcement,  injuries have caused Dave to retire. Cooking became therapy after his Mother passed away. Dave was always cooking throughout his careers, sharing many dishes with family, friends and coworkers. Dave has been fortunate to have met a wide range of people from many aspects of life and can't wait share their food origin stories! 

Dave brings his passion for food and culinary experience as host of the Food Origins Podcast.
