One Bite Foodie Podcast Episode 2 From Tulum to Jalisco: The Culinary Heritage Unveiled Welcome to this vibrant episode of the One Bite Foodie Podcast! We’re broadcasting live from The OG's Tulum, where the 2024 Festival Gastronómico del Mole Tulum is in full swing. OG’s, a staple in Tulum’s dining scene, boasts a delicious menu of brunch and dinner options, using fresh, local ingredients that echo the flavors of the region. Their creative dishes, like birria chilaquiles and cacao pancakes, keep both locals and travelers coming back. This year's Mole Festival brought together Mexico's top culinary figures, but the highlight of this episode is our exclusive interview with Carlos García, the fifth-generation steward of Casa Tlalpuyec. Recorded during this bustling event, special field correspondent and One Bite Foodie founder Joseph Haecker sits down with Carlos to discuss the rich heritage of Casa Tlalpuyec. Known for producing premium Raicilla, a unique agave spirit from the highlands of Mascota, Jalisco, Casa Tlalpuyec continues to honor its origins while innovating for the modern palate. Unlike tequila or mezcal, Raicilla captures distinct roasted agave notes and embodies the tradition of Jalisco. Tune in to learn about the journey of this historical distillery, the story behind Carlos’s mother’s recipe, and how the focus on flavor and craftsmanship sets Casa Tlalpuyec apart.

In the debut episode of the One Bite Foodie Podcast, we sit down with Joseph Haecker, founder of One Bite Foodie, a unique platform designed to unite food lovers, creators, and restaurateurs through the simple power of a single bite. Joseph’s journey is anything but ordinary. After losing his sense of taste and smell to COVID in 2021, he embarked on a mission to savor the experience of food differently, focusing on textures, flavors, and ambiance — and bringing people along for the journey. Join our host, Mark Schilling, as he dives into Joseph’s background, the inspiration behind One Bite Foodie, and his belief that even one bite can spark conversations, create connections, and support local eateries. Discover how the platform empowers users to share their favorite “one-bite” reviews, spotlight hidden gems, and become part of a growing food community that values experiences as much as taste. Whether you’re a seasoned foodie or just love discovering new eats, this episode will inspire you to look at food a little differently — as a gateway to connection, support, and shared experience.
