PHILADELPHIA - TelAve -- Philadelphia-based Vegan Chef KESS is gaining national attention following a recent feature on Parade.com highlighting his Great Northern Bean Cajun Soup, a comforting recipe inspired by the vegan homestyle cooking of his mother.

The Parade feature introduces readers to a dish rooted not only in flavor, but also in Chef KESS' childhood and the healthy approach to food that shaped him into the chef he would eventually become.

"My mother was an amazing cook who emphasized healthy vegan lifestyle choices," Chef KESS said. "Because she wanted me to enjoy it too, she made sure each meal was as delectable as possible."

The national feature comes as Chef KESS prepares to expand his culinary brand into a new arena: wedding catering and customized culinary experiences.
