Elizabeth Johnson: Pharm Table (San Antonio, TX)

In this season of alchemy and the celebration of potions, harvest, and even bubbling cauldrons, we turn to a true culinary alchemist whose ideas for good food meet transformation on the daily. Elizabeth Johnson’s rich background reflects her complementary philosophies at her restaurant, Pharm Table, in San Antonio, TX. The James Beard Foundation referred to Johnson as a “Food is medicine guru,” and Johnson’s extensive studies and travels have culminated in a dream to bring healthy global food practices to the guests at her table. She was a Latin Cuisines Specialist/Chef Instructor of The Culinary Institute of America San Antonio from 2008-2014 and has been featured in many media spots including the the Wall Street Journal, Simply Ming and Conde Nast Traveler. As a native San Antonian, Elizabeth has come to appreciate and honor the region’s heritage foods and learned to combine her own unique knowledge with the tastes of her home.
