The series kicks off with a tour of Chicago’s famed XMarket Food Hall, which is the home of six extraordinary vegan eateries, including Kale My Name, 2D Restaurant, El Hongo Magico, Chicago Not Dog, Veganiano and Bloom Sushi Counter as well as a full-service bar and plant-based supermarket.

Nemanja also serves as a judge on “The Blox,” airing on Amazon Prime.
After coming across a blog post discussing how a plant-based diet could alleviate asthma symptoms and watching the documentary “What The Health,” Tamika Price made the switch to a plant-based lifestyle. She noticed significant improvements to her health and quality of life and was inspired to showcase the abundance and joys of plant-based living to her community, quickly garnering a following of over 100K. Her work in both fashion and food has been featured on “The Rachael Ray Show,” WGN, NBC, ABC and nationally aired American Express commercials, among other outlets.
“Kale Krew” shows that the plant-based lifestyle is not solely a New York/LA/London/Berlin phenomenon. The vegan lifestyle is spreading across America, into the heartland, and to the rest of the world. The tired mantra, “What do you eat?” is being replaced by, “Why didn’t I try vegan sooner?” And the best is yet to come. Stay tuned for more fabulous food adventures from the Kale Krew!
