In this episode of Bong Appetit, host Michelle Lhooq heads to LA Coffee Club to meet with roaster Kian Abedini of Compelling & Rich Coffee. Kian shows us to infuse coffee with the flavors and aromas of our favorite strain, and prepare the preferred drink of 19th-century artists: a café de hashashin. This aromatic concoction of cannabis-infused butter, coffee, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, orange juice, and pistachio butter will definitely get the creative juices flowing. Victor Hugo would be so proud.
Abdullah is back! In this episode, he travels to the hippie mecca of Northern California to check out the OM Collective—an all-women grow and the makers of OM Edibles cannabis-infused topicals, tinctures, and edibles. Owner Maya Elisabeth shows Abdullah how to make a few varieties of cannabis olive oils infused with garlic and ginger to use in an upcoming feast with their friends from The Cookie Fam. In a beautiful setting overlooking the San Francisco Bay, Chef Tim Milojevich prepares a mouth-watering meal of Peruvian ceviche, hearts-of-palm salad, sea bass baked in banana leaves, and prime rib with chimichurri sauce, all prepared with Maya’s infused olive oils. Don’t judge Abdullah … We bet you wouldn’t be able to keep your clothes on after this meal, either.
Worldwide sensation Nonna Marijuana is back for the holidays, and this time she’s baking weed-infused Christmas cookies and “Egg Nug” (yep, we said nug) for Santa with host Abdullah Saeed. Throw on an ugly holiday sweater and settle in for a real treat. Don’t worry—Santa wasn’t too buzzed to make all of his stops after consuming Nonna’s infused edibles. So, if you’ve been really good this year, Santa might even stick some of the North Pole’s finest merry-juana in your stocking, too!
Abdullah heads to San Francisco to meet the folks behind THCheese, a gourmet medicated food purveyor, and explore the high end of the high life.

To cap it off, the THCheese crew treats us to a curated paring where Abdullah learns how to pair wine, weed, and fancy edibles like a true aristocrat. Pinkies up!
Let’s get cooking! Host Abdullah Saeed travels to his home-away-from-home—the mile-high city of Denver, Colorado—for another weedful day.

Abdullah meets up with the pair at their restaurant, Jezebel’s Southern Bistro & Bar, for food with a Southern flair and a Coloradan attitude. Next, Abdullah tours the Simply Pure Dispensary and Viola Extracts to get schooled on some of the finest green goodies ever grown, with guidance from owner Dan Pettigrew and expert extractor Professor Piff. After Abdullah smokes some samples, he hangs with Chef Durrah for a lesson in pairing papaya weed with sweet Jamaican curry mussels and more for a simply, purely, perfectly home-cooked meal amongst friends. Just be sure to get your measurements right.

On this episode of Bong Appetit, Abdullah is in Seattle to enjoy some good ol’ fashioned Pacific Northwest cannabis hospitality.

Abdullah dives head first into the world of infused syrups and whips up a batch of their blueberry-orange Ballard Beat syrup to take along for the next part of his adventure.
Abdullah befriends farmers and livestock alike on this episode of Bong Appetit. Come along as he visits Washington’s Vashon Island on a quest to make some seriously dank–and locally sourced–cannabis cupcakes.

Their first stop is Cornerstone Farm & Dairy to collect fresh cream from a local farmer and her four-legged milk factory, Edith, before heading on to Vashon Velvet to choose the choicest Washington cannabis for their cakes. Ingredients in hand, Abdullah and Jody head to the kitchen to bake up a batch of blitzed-out budcakes fit for any celebration. Or Tuesday. Bong appetit!
In this episode of Bong Appetit, we kick things off at local Moto Perpetuo Farms where we tour the organic vegetable and cannabis farm before feasting on a unique cannabis-infused brunch prepared by Leather Storrs of Portland restaurant Nobel Rot.

Last stop is Northwest Cannabis Club, where Abdullah checks into his first cannabis club for some deliciously infused hors d’oeuvres before stand-up comedy night... where a very special guest takes the stage.
The crew gets baked this Weed Week.
