The Insatiable Lens Issue 2: Rogue!

I am very excited to announce that the latest issue of my personal project, The Insatiable Lens has been published! This issue turned out to be more than a year in the making, but it was well worth the wait. In this issue I explore one of the best kept secrets in the St. Louis food community: The Rogue Underground Dining Society. For the past six years, the Rogue Chefs have been hosting secretive pop-up dinners all over St. Louis, in venues that include train stations, vet clinics, Gothic Churches and funeral homes, just to mention a few. These invite only dinners feature interesting and innovative food ideas that are able to exist on the fringes without being restricted by petty nuisances like owning a restaurant or applying for a liquor license.

I was given the opportunity to get a glimpse into this generally unseen world. I was able to document what goes on behind closed doors all over St. Louis … I’ll give you a hint … enchanting events, a tight-knit community of volunteers, and of course, amazing food.
