Description
Season 5 of Andrew Talks to Chefs kicks off with our action-packed, first-ever LIVE production from the Brooklyn Podcast Festival! Tom Colicchio joins Andrew on stage for a one-on-one conversation covering everything from his culinary point of view to the origins of Craft restaurants and Top Chef to his social advocacy and political outspokenness to why he doesn't dig sous vide. Then chefs Greg Baxtrom (Olmsted), Alan Harding (Gowanus Yacht Club, et al), and Alex Raij (La Vara, Saint Julivert) participate in a Brooklyn--Then & Now rap session. Plus, Caitlin meets the audience for a trivia contest, the Brooklyn-based band FaTHERS performs our theme music in person, and Georgia chef and former Top Chef judge Hugh Acheson joins Andrew in studio to introduce the show.

Episode 9: Victoria Blamey: Victoria Blamey is a good sport. The chef of Chumley’s, the reinvigorated former speakeasy in New York City’s West Village, agreed to meet Andrew for a shift drink and interview after dinner service at the restaurant. The two got to it around midnight and talked up a storm over cocktails, while Victoria’s crew gradually wrapped up their evening all around them. The two discussed the restaurant’s already-famous burger and why Victoria won’t customize it (a philosophical disagreement she and Andrew had been arguing for months off-radio); what it was like to be a young, female chef from Chile coming up in Michelin-starred kitchens in the UK and Australia; and her stints working for chefs like Paul Liebrandt (Corton), Matt Lightner (Atera), and Justin Smillie (Il Buco Alimentari e Vineria and Upland). Victoria also shares the origins and inspirations for her distinct visual style and her thoughts about cooking as an expression of self. A personal conversation be by Andrew Talks to Chefs
