Ashok Bajaj x Chef Vikram Sunderam x Me: Passion Built the Empire, This Chef Brought It to Life (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Inside the empire behind Rasika, Bombay Club, and now Malabar. He told me he gets high without taking any drugs, just from walking into his own restaurants every night. After 35 years and ten restaurants, he still means it, and that is the whole story in one sentence. This week I sat down with two people who basically invented modern Indian dining in America, on location at their newest restaurant, Malabar. If you have ever wondered how one person builds a ten restaurant empire, survives a pande
Comedian & Cook Book Author, Gus Constantellis, His Mon Died, So He Wrote a Cookbook (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gus Constantellis lost his mother, Julia, and four days later he posted a video making the first thing she ever taught him to cook. That video is the reason a cookbook exists. Industry Night is Heartcast Media's DC food podcast, hosted by Washington DC restaurant insider Nycci Nellis, and once in a while the guest isn't a chef at all. Gus Constantellis, the Greek Mom cookbook comedian, is the Greek American stand up comic and writer behind the viral videos where he becomes his mother on camera w
Victor Albisu: It’s Electric, Industry Night at City Ridge (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Tacos, steak, and the reviews chefs never want to read out loud. I made a grown man put on his readers and get roasted, live, at his own restaurant.

Victor Albisu has been feeding this city for twenty years, from fine dining to fast casual to his brand new anti-steakhouse, and today he finally reads the internet's harshest reviews o
Jade Floyd on The Leadership Labyrinth (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Twenty women, one labyrinth, and the DC insider secrets in between. I mean, I think I need to hire Jade. That was my honest reaction sitting across from her at Tony and Joe's, oysters on the table, the Potomac right there, talking about power, fear, and the rooms women still have to fight to get into. This is exactly why I wanted her on this DC food podcast. Most leadership books are written by people who never had to read a room, calm an investor, or figure out how to ask for what they deserve.
Is This the Best Winery in Maryland? The Burnt Hill Farm Family is With Nycci Nellis at RPM Italian (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Three siblings, one rocky hill in Clarksburg, and the boldest bet in Maryland wine. An old farmer drove his beat up pickup to the top of the hill and told Drew Baker the only thing that land ever grew was rocks. Drew bought the farm anyway, because rocks were exactly what he was looking for. I have been waiting to tell this story since I first made the drive out to Burnt Hill, and this episode of my DC food podcast finally gets to do it justice. Maryland wine has been fighting for respect for de
