Zaynab Issa is the next guest on our new miniseries, Fashion Plate, where we feature creatives at the intersection of food and fashion. A stylish multi-hyphenate, Zaynab is a recipe developer, freelance creative, travel enthusiast, and soon-to-be cookbook author.
She joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her debut book, "Third Culture Cooking" (out April 2025), growing up in suburban New Jersey (and loving mall food), the influence of Khoja cuisine, which blends her Indian and East African roots, and why her fashion icons include her two older sisters and Zoë Kravitz.
