Eat It and Like It Cooking Stage with Jesse Blanco
Sample local cuisine and learn cooking secrets from Eat It & Like It’s Jesse Blanco. Jesse and other local chefs will be cooking up fabulous dishes all weekend long on the Eat It and Like It Cooking Stage! Jesse Blanco will also be signing copies of his books Savannah Food Crawls and Charleston Food Crawls at the show.
Jesse Blanco is one of Savannah’s most recognizable personalities. His laid-back style and ability to connect with viewers and readers have defined his 24-year career in television news. In 2010, Jesse co-created Eat It and Like It—a blog and TV show dedicated to showcasing the South’s often-overlooked food scene. When Savannah’s dining culture exploded just a few years later, he was front and center, becoming the area’s only full-time food writer in 2014.
His first book, Savannah Food Crawls, debuted in 2023, followed by Charleston Food Crawls in early 2024.
A Miami native, Jesse expanded his brand southward with Eat It Florida, exploring hidden gems and local favorites from the Panhandle to the Keys. Under this new umbrella, Eat It and Like It continues to grow, celebrating the stories and flavors that make the South one of the most dynamic food regions in America.
Chief Meteorologist Denis Phillips
Join renowned meteorologist Denis Phillips for an eye-opening look at Florida’s most storm-vulnerable areas. With over 30 years of forecasting experience and a passion sparked by tracking Santa on radar as a kid, Denis brings insight, energy, and real-world expertise to this can’t-miss seminar on hurricane season risks and readiness!
Denis Phillips’ desire to be a television meteorologist began when he saw Santa on radar when he was 6 years old living in Seattle, Washington. It’s true, although severe weather really hooked him. And after 3 decades of forecasting the weather in the Bay Area, he’s covered more than his fair share of storms!
Denis attended Penn State University because of its reputation in weather forecasting. One out of every four meteorologists in the world comes from PSU. Denis graduated in 1985 and got his first on-air position in Salisbury, Maryland. After stops in Gainesville, Providence, and Los Angeles, Denis found home in the Bay Area.
Phillips started wearing his “trademark” suspenders in 2004 when Hurricane Charley was approaching. Denis was wearing the only suspenders to his name during the entire 36-hour coverage. After the storm moved through, viewers were asked who they watched and trusted. Most responded, “No idea what the guy’s name was, but he was the one wearing suspenders”.
Over the years, Denis has developed trust in his hurricane forecasts by skipping the hype, and focusing on facts. His Rule #7 (Don’t freak out unless I’m freaking out, we’re fine) has become a motto many Bay Area residents live by during hurricane season.
The Phillips family loves giving back to the community. Every holiday season, they organize a “hot chocolate” fundraiser benefitting local charities. Their neighborhood in Palm Harbor, known for its beautiful Christmas light displays, is the perfect spot. Over the years, the Phillips family and friends have raised tens of thousands of dollars for “Feeding Tampa Bay”, the “Sunshine Foundation”, “Children’s Miracle Network” among other worthwhile organizations. Denis and his wife Robyn, have 6 kids. Lots of help with pouring hot chocolate and putting up Christmas lights!
