The Foodfluencers: Cassie Yeung on Viral Food, Gordon Ramsay and Reinvention
Cassie Yeung went from professional dancer to viral food creator, Gordon Ramsay competitor, and New York Times bestselling author. On Foodfluencers, she shares how a recipe she almost didn’t post became the viral carrot ribbon salad, why simple recipes win, and how social media is changing what all of us eat.
Cassie Yeung did not take the traditional path into food. Before millions of people were watching her cook, she was dancing professionally with the Brooklyn Nets, working a 9-to-5, and trying to figure out what she actually wanted to do with her life.
On this episode of Hospitality Hangout’s Foodfluencers series, Cassie shares how she turned a lifelong love of cooking into a career as a creator, Next Level Chef competitor, brand collaborator, and New York Times bestselling cookbook author.
The conversation gets into the three-month window her parents gave her to make content creation work, the viral videos that changed her trajectory, learning from Gordon Ramsay, writing Bad Btch in the Kitch*, and why the recipes that connect most are often the simplest ones.
