The Perfect Bite

Sarah Perkins

Booking Overview

An interview show focused on food entrepreneurship and the broader food, beverage, restaurant, and hospitality industries, it typically features chefs, restaurateurs, CPG founders, and food-industry executives sharing founding, growth, and reinvention stories. Credible pitches include accomplished culinary leaders, restaurant founders, emerging food and beverage brand builders, food-tech entrepreneurs, and executives with distinctive operational or innovation expertise; booking difficulty is medium because guests generally have meaningful industry achievements but are not uniformly celebrity-level.
