Let’s Meet Eric Adjepong’s Wife Janell Mack

After being a finalist in Season 16 of Top Chef, Washington, D.C. chef Eric Adjepong has not only continued to be a culinary mastermind, but is also a writer, teacher, and the host of Alex Vs. America. He’s also a devoted husband and father to his wife Janell, whom he told Essence he knew was the one while “watching the movie Lucy in her apartment in Harlem, NY.”

Eric’s social media has mainly included posts of photos and videos for promotional purposes, but occasionally he posts photos with friends and family. Although there are currently no photos of the two of them on his Instagram, Eric and Janell have been happily since 2016, and even founded a company called Pinch & Plate.

However, Janell has accomplished a lot on her own as well outside of the meal industry. With that in mind, here’s everything we know about Eric’s wife and family life.

Janell is a lead human resources specialist in D.C. for the FDA, and also is the co-founder of Pinch & Plate, a pop-up dinner party and event planning company, which she founded with Eric in 2015.

“She has a vision. It’s good when it’s great; when you both love it, and you’re both having a good time. It doesn’t feel like work,” Eric told Cuisine Noir back in 2018.

Regarding her marriage to Eric, she told Essence that she loves his heart so much, and that he was exactly what she prayed for. The two of them have since continued a loving relationship, and currently live in D.C.
