Having walked through professional kitchens since he was 16, Matt has worked with the best and come up in the culinary world alongside some incredible chefs too. We chat about his time under Thomas Keller and the military like style in which Keller conducted his brigade. We chat about meeting Rene Redzepi at the Fat Duck, looking up to Charlie Palmer as one of his inspirations (Matt still wore black socks after Charlie drilled it into him), jumping on at NOMA in 2005 only a year after it had been opened and running with 5 chefs before opening up AMASS in a deserted industrial looking complex. Matt's proudest achievements has been creating an ego free kitchen filled with universal contributions from all team members, running the restaurants farm to a synergetic level with the menu, developing new sustainable practices that hadn't been thought of (like using melted down candles to fill egg cartons and use them as fire starters for the Barbeque). Being in this place and driving forward with a simple ethos, has led Matt Orlando on a path driven to creating a world where you can operate under the word “responsible” and actually mean it. It's an inspiring chat filled with raw reflections of his time cooking at some of the worlds best restaurants, his humbling experiences as a young chef de partie (“those fucking potato chips”) for Charlie Palmer, we check out the restaurant farm and talk about where everything is heading to next.

In episode 9 Cody chats with long time friend and head chef and owner of Amass Restaurant, Matthew Orlando, about responsible cooking and what the restaurant industry looks like in the times of Covid-19. Matt Orlando was born February 7, 1977 and raised in Encinitas, California. After working through the kitchens of San Diego, he decided to make the move to New York City, where he worked at Charlie Palmer’s Auerole for two years, before landing a position at Eric Ripert’s three-starred Michelin restaurant, Le Bernardin. After realizing his need to further refine his cooking skills, Matt moved to England to work both at Raymond Blanc’s two- starred Michelin restaurant, Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons and Heston Blumenthal’s three- starred Michelin restaurant, The Fat Duck.It was while working at The Fat Duck that Matt met René Redzepi, owner and head chef of Noma in Copenhagen, Denmark. This chance meeting led to a two-year Sous Chef position at Noma, before Matt returned to New York City to take a Sous Chef position at Thomas Keller’s three-starred Michelin restaurant, Per Se. After three years at Per Se, René asked Matt to return to take the reigns as Noma’s first Chef de Cuisine.After working at Noma for two-and-a-half years, Matt felt the time was right to build his dream project. In July 2013, he opened Amass on the waterfront of the former industrial area of Refshaleøen, Copenhagen. A restaurant that has come to prove that modern gastronomy and hospitality can go hand in hand with sustainability. As a testament to this ethos, Matt also proceeded to get his restaurant organically certified in 2016, ensuring 90 - 100% of the food and beverages served at Amass are organic and free of pesticides. Matt seeks inspiration in the by-products his kitchen produces; creating unique and exciting flavors, whilst drastically reducing the restaurant’s carbon footprint and always with deliciousness as the driving force behind his work.In January of 2019 Matt proceeded to open another dream project just a couple of 100 meters from Amass. Broaden & Build is a craft brewery, casual restaurant and bar, operating under the same mindset as Amass, while trying to create a symbiotic relationship between the beer and food brewed and served on site.AMASSRESTAURANT.COMFollow Matthew on Instagram Find out more about AMASS by visiting their website amassrestaurant.com & Find AMASS on Instagram -You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook The best way to support We Are The Stigma is by leaving us a five-star review!

Chef Matt Orlando is the Head Chef/Owner of Amass Restaurant and Broaden & Build in Copenhagen. He has worked for some of the best chefs and restaurants in the world including Aureole, Le Bernardin, Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, The Fat Duck, Noma, Per Se and more. We discuss his point of view on sustainability and what it means to be a responsible restaurant.
Amass has been recognized multiple times not only as one of the best restaurants in the world, but also as one of the most sustainable. For them, a zero waste kitchen has been an incredible creative constraint inspiring major changes to how this fine dining institution cooks, recycles, sources, and operates in their local environment. Today the restaurant’s food and ingredients are 90% organic. Food waste has been reduced by 75% since they started in 2013 and their annual water consumption is down by 5,200 liters. The restaurant’s facilities also include a garden with 80 varieties of plants and an aquaponic farming system. A Native New Zealander, Kim Wejendorp was the Sous Chef at Amass Restaurant in Copenhagen before becoming their head of R&D. In this conversation, we talk about how they undertook the sustainable transition, the creative process that produces a zero waste kitchen, and what kind of partners and innovations they are looking to partner with.

She will talk about the experience and her thoughts on the episode. Then adding more of a Gordon Ramsay flavor to the show, we are happy to talk to Chef Heather Williams a Season 16 runner up and a contestant of the current season 18 of Hell's Kitchen.

For the first time in the show's history, eight accomplished chefs who have competed in previous seasons – and lost – will be brought back for a shot at redemption and tested like never before, as they go up against eight ambitious rookies. Each week, the chefs will be put through a series of grueling culinary challenges and dinner services to prove to Chef Ramsay they have what it takes to win a life-changing grand prize: a position at the world's first Gordon Ramsay Hell's Kitchen Las Vegas at Caesars Palace in Visit Las Vegas and $250,000.

Well we will be joined by Denise Fuchs the founder and CEO of Bloombaes because Bloombaes was sparked by a quest to make long distance gift giving a little more special. When she couldn't find anything online beyond the gift delivery mainstays - flowers, gift cards, gourmet baskets, etc. - she decided take her favorite parts of those classics and create something new. The result was a handmade bouquet of chocolate truffles. It is beautiful, delicious, and thoughtful. A Bloombae is a handcrafted chocolate bouquet. It's a colorful combination of melt-in-your-mouth chocolate truffles and keepsake sola wood flowers, wrapped in smooth floral sheeting, and most importantly - made with love.

Matt Orlando is the head chef and founder of Amass restaurant in Copenhagen's Refshalevej neighborhood, a somewhat secluded post industrial part of the city that you can choose to arrive to by public ferry. Orlando opened Amass in 2013, which is a relatively short distance from both locations of Noma, where Orlando previously worked. It turns out he actually spent two periods at Noma. His first post was sous chef in the mid 2000s, but he departed briefly for New York with his wife – who's Danish – to take an opportunity as Sous Chef at Thomas Keller's Per Se. Longing to return to Denmark, he got a call from Rene Redzepi after a couple of years in New York asking him to serve as NOMA's first executive chef, a post he accepted and kept for three years prior to leaving to start his own restaurant down the street, an endeavor Redzepi was characteristically enthusiastic and encouraging of. The result was Amass, a fine dining establishment located in a sprawling industrial warehouse covered in curated grafiti and proudly blasting often obscure and sometimes aggressive hip hop. The juxtaposed restaurant is an extension of the chef himself, a San Diego native who grew up skateboarding and skiing amidst the graffiti'd culture of bay area hip hop legends Hieroglyphics before taking up a distinguished career in fine dining.
