Food and Film: Hilary Mace & Joel Chandler on Good Eats While Eating Good and Ron Moore on Films

by Jason Mundok | Sep 21, 2026 | Food + Film, So Good Lancaster Podcast

We’re talking about food and film. On the food side, I’m joined by Hilary Mace, the founder of The Scarlet Runner, a wildly popular catering business based in Lancaster between 2011 and 2021. Hilary closed down during the pandemic and left the area to live in remote locations in Arizona and Idaho. While she returned to the Lancaster area about two years ago, she just recently relaunched The Scarlet Runner.

Hilary and I are joined by Lancaster fitness coach Joel Chandler, who recently published The Lancaster Nutrition Handbook. It’s a guide to over a dozen Lancaster City restaurants from the perspective of eating for your fitness goals. The guide includes calorie and macro estimates for some of your favorite restaurants in Lancaster.

Ron Moore, a Lancaster County film enthusiast and the host of the Why This Film? podcast, joined me to break down the Lancaster film scene. Ron will be back each month to report on special screenings, original film projects, and events wrapped around film in Lancaster County.

As usual there’s a lot going on around Lancaster and a ton of great restaurants to enjoy. Be sure to get out and support our incredible locally-owned restaurant scene.
