Philly Food Truck: Samosa Deb (Gourmet Indian Cuisine)
by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor In May (2013) I started a food truck series with Farm Truck and went to New York to feature The Ditch Witch. Then I got rather busy interviewing Lee Daniels, Cuba Gooding, Jr and Yaya Alafia for the movie The Butler, and other great film/movie posts happened, and so, it’s taken me this long to get back to my Food Truck series. Debbie Dasani – Owner/Operator/Chef of Samosa Deb It gives me great pleasure to continue The Tinsel & Tine Food Truck Series with a new truck in Philly – SAMOSA DEB. I had a truly warm & delicious visit with Debbie Dasani at…

The Happy Sad – LeRoy McClain Interview
So here’s yet another coincidence, I saw the film The Happy Sad during QFEST (Philly’s LGBT film festival) and went to the after party, where I talked to one of the stars of the movie LeRoy McClain.

The Library Bar Interview: YAYA DACOSTA (Big Words) (Lee Daniels’ The Butler)
By Le Anne Lindsay, Editor In my We’re the Millers post, I talked about the coincidence of the same things crossing your path from different places. I feel that way when it comes to this beautiful America’s Next Top Model turned actress, who is steadily making a name for herself in the biz – Yaya Alafia – although that name has changed from DaCosta to Alafia with her marriage to filmmaker Joshua Bee Alafia last June. The couple is happily expecting their first child. I first took note of Yaya in my post on the movie The Kids Are All Right (2010). And although she’d been in Take the Lead…
