Food & Wine: August 2019

“We work hard, but there’s so much joy in it. It’s like home,” says Samantha Fore, chef-owner at Tuk Tuk, a pop-up in Lexington, Kentucky, who brought revamped tomato pie to the party. “There’s a Sri Lankan cheese toast spiced with chile pepper and onion that I love. Tomato pie always has mayo and cheese, so I brought them together and made a take on cheese toast with tomatoes and spices. It’s the perfect bite of Sri Lanka and the South.”
