San Antonio chef and restaurateur Tim McDiarmid has stolen foodies’ hearts with her fresh approach to dining and drinking, but her 2021 appearance on Food Network’s competition series Chopped raised her profile even further. The Canadian-born culinary pro not only operates Tim the Girl Catering, The Good Kind restaurant and Southtown garden venue Ivy Hall, she also participates in exclusive workshops that focus on topics relevant to food systems at the local, state and national levels. McDiarmid told the Current in past interviews that she sees these as opportunities to advocate for her own farm-to-table philosophies while learning from other chefs and speakers about how she can help improve the San Antonio community.
