Feed Your Soul: Chef Joe – Culinary Instructor – Celebrates 10 Years Serving the Mission of Cafe Reconcile

Back in May we had the privilege of talking with Dave Emond, Director of Development for Cafe Reconcile about the mission of Reconcile New Orleans, Inc. and how they are building hope and changing lives through Cafe Reconcile.

Last week we heard that Culinary Instructor “Chef Joe” Smith was celebrating 10 years of service with Cafe Reconcile. We have been so impressed by all the good things we hear about Cafe Reconcile – from the delicious and well-crafted dishes to the amazing results of changed lives brought about by the program – that we thought it would be the perfect time to pay a visit and get Chef Joe’s perspective on the work and mission of Cafe Reconcile.

And we were not disappointed.
