    Nick Walker, Are Your Line Cooks Still Loyal To You? Ep. 223 (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Nick Walker is an FSR 40 Under 40 chef who oversaw the James Beard nominated Meridian and now leads 11 Whiskey Cake locations across Texas and Florida. He started in a kitchen at 15, under the table, and cut his thumb open on his first real shift when a slamming office door caught his hand mid cut. They poured kitchen whiskey on the wound, duct taped it shut, and he finished service. Why he believes a cook can cook food, but a chef has to manage people and run the numbers, and why so many talent

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Tim Laielli will not call himself a chef. He is clear about it every time someone assumes otherwise, including his own father, who is one.

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Bryan Caswell has cooked inside three very different kinds of rooms. Jean-Georges Vongerichten's kitchen in the early 2000s, where he learned that a quiet, organized kitchen beats a screaming one. Seventeen restaurant openings of his own, roughly half of them his own concepts, from Reef to his new restaurant Latuli in Houston. And, less known, rooms full of policy people deciding how the Gulf actually gets fished. Why he thinks the redfish fishery is in the best shape he's seen in his career, an

    The First Latina to Beat Bobby Flay Breaks Down Her Real Numbers Ep. 219 (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Rosana Rivera runs three businesses under one roof: a bakery storefront, a wholesale bread program, and a catering and events company called Gatheria Studio. Most operators would guess wholesale wins on volume alone. It doesn't. Catering does, by a wide margin, sometimes 30 to 40 percent margins in a good season, more than either of the other two combined at the bottom line. She's also the first Latina chef to ever beat Bobby Flay on television, and the casting process that got her there is wort
