For almost 20 years, Kamal Mouzawak, a Beirut-based social entrepreneur and hospitality visionary, has been building bridges in Lebanon through food. He founded the country's first farmer's market, Souk el Tayeb, which has also become important for its advocacy of farmers and for the way it provides public food education. His restaurant, Tawlet, features dishes that have helped Lebanese nationals and travelers alike understand the country's diverse culinary traditions and the stories behind them. Kamal's mission has always been humanitarian in nature and now, facing an unprecedented combination of crises, including the aftermath of August 4th's devastating explosion, he has teamed with World Central Kitchen to make thousands of meals per day for people in need. Listen in as Kamal describes what he's doing in the wake of the blast, shares ambitious plans for the future of Tawlet and Souk el Tayeb and explains why he believes now is the make it or break moment for his city and his country.
