By launching a new meal program called Spatula, which our editors claim is, “the new chef-made meal plan you didn’t know you needed!”
“I don’t want to make healthy food delicious,” says Wong. “I want to make delicious food healthy.” Words to live by!
“After a much needed hiatus, our team is proud to kick-off the return of our monthly digital cover feature series,” says Steven Branco, STAMINA Group Inc. creative director and founder. “We’re back, poised and exuding confidence in what we have in store: championing diversity by showcasing the underrepresented. Not only during the months that it’s ‘trendy’ to do so, but year round. This month just so happens that Wallace Wong and Asian Heritage Month aligned, but we proudly strive to diversify our features all year, with people of all races, genders and sexual orientations. Wallace didn’t get selected because he’s Asian, it’s because he’s truly a rising star that deserves the spotlight–and one we should all keep an eye on. He’s up to great things!”
