I've moved on to Tiktok chefs instead, specifically Cult Flav, who I am loyal to but they've clearly become influencers who probably have a book deal and possibly a tv show in their future, and the much more lo-fi @2peoplecooking, a lovely gentle couple who live in Asbury Park and have cooked together professionally and make nice Friday night dinners in their apartment and invite you in.

I'm a fan of Sohla and Ham El-Waylly, both together and separately. Sohla was a Bon Appetit test kitchen guru, both are now with NYT and have many things on the youtubes including the awesome challenge show where they are given a bag of something odd (like green jello or hot pockets) and have to make a 3 course meal in 45 minutes.
