Food: it’s stuff on a plate but also something that tells others about what’s in our hearts and our minds. In “Have You Eaten Yet,” Cheuk Kwan interviews Chinese restaurant owners and workers, showcasing their resilience and multifaceted identities. From Mexican to Japanese, Anya von Bremzen’s “National Dish” reveals the complex history of six iconic national cuisines. Moderated by The Washington Post’s Daniela Galarza.
