“It's valuable to not have a perfect plan,” advises Gail Simmons as she shares how she manifested her dreams into reality—from penning restaurant reviews in college to becoming a renowned figure in the culinary world. Working under food critic Jeffrey Steingarten at Vogue and alongside chef Daniel Boulud, Gail gained invaluable lessons that paved the way for her role at Food & Wine Magazine. It was here that Gail's involvement with the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen would eventually lead to her television debut on Bravo's “Top Chef,” bringing her into the spotlight and influencing the culinary industry at large.Beyond television, Gail discusses her venture into entrepreneurship with Bumble Pie Productions, aiming to elevate diverse voices in the culinary space. She reflects on the challenges and rewards of balancing a high-profile career with being a present parent, sharing personal anecdotes about integrating family life with her professional endeavors.This episode shows how passion, when pursued diligently, can lead to fulfilling and successful careers. Gail Simmons reminds us that with the right ingredients, anyone can cook up their dream career.Quotes“I am not an expert in parenting. We're all just trying to do it. And also just in navigating the challenges of life in general. I love that I love my job. That doesn't mean that it's all awesome. It's still called work for a reason, right? I make it sound very glamorous, but I assure you I'm not just going to 12-course tasting menus and jetting to Aspen every day.” (44:00 | Gail Simmons) “The goal of running a business, no matter how big or how small, is to do less for the most cost. It's not to do 100 things for $5, to do five things for $100.” (49:03 | Gail Simmons) “I think it's valuable to not have a perfect plan. I don't believe in the five-year plan because inevitably the world will trip it up. You don't know where the world will be in five years. How can you possibly know where you will be? I always say, have the foresight to walk ahead confidently. But make sure to keep looking to the left and the right because that's where the opportunities are."

Tom & Kevin aren't huge fans of hidden doors or cheese croquettes, but they love getting to the bottom of a good mystery -- like who's to blame over the slippery floor this week in the Top Chef kitchen. This week's Cheese Elimination Challenge didn't produce any instant classics. One nice “nice fried ball” — as Gail Simmons artfully called the procession of croquettes — after another. Though the episode didn't produce any or memorable dishes, it did what an early episode is supposed to do: Begin the separation of the contenders from the long-shots. Michelle, Rasika, and Dan are beginning to form an elite at the front of the pack.  Subscribe to the new PYK Substack! https://www.packyourknives.com/ Rate PYK 5 Stars on Apple or Spotify Follow PYK on Twitter: @packknives & Instagram: @packyourknives COUNT THE DINGS MERCH STORE - Check it out here: https://bit.ly/CTDMERCH Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode we speak with the incredible Gail Simmons about her rise to fame & role as Host on "Top Chef" and history as a gastronomic guru in New York City

The beloved cooking competition show "Top Chef" is returning for its 21st season today. We are joined by "Top Chef" judge and cookbook author Gail Simmons, who has been with the show since it began in 2006 and can discuss how the series, culinary trends, and qualifications for what makes a "top chef" have changed over the decades. Plus, we'll take calls from listeners about their favorite "Top Chef" moments. "Top Chef" airs new episodes on Thursday nights on Bravo.  *This episode is guest-hosted by Kousha Navidar

Gail Simmons is the ultimate culinary multi-hyphenate. Though she's perhaps best known for her 21-season tenure as judge on the competition reality show Top Chef, which debuts its latest season on March 20, she's also made a lasting impact on so many other areas of food media. Simmons has spent 15 years of her career leading teams at Food & Wine (including organizing the Food & Wine Classic in Aspen); has written numerous books; and has even launched her own production company, Bumble Pie Productions, which focuses on bringing women's voices to the food landscape. But before Simmons was making a name for herself as a food expert, she spent her early career gaining industry knowledge by attending culinary school; working at the iconic restaurants Le Cirque 2000 and Vong; assisting Vogue food critic Jeffrey Steingarten; and running special events for Daniel Boulud's legendary restaurant group.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Top Chef judge Gail Simmons never thought she'd have a career in food. Sure, her mom ran a cooking school in their home growing up. Yes, she worked in the kitchen on a kibbutz in Israel. And it's true, she wrote restaurant reviews for her college paper. But was food really what she wanted to do? It turns out: yes. Once Gail snagged a job on that as-yet-unknown reality TV cooking competition, she never looked back. Now, ahead of the Top Chef season 20 finale, Gail talks with Dan about how she's become a better judge on the show while letting go of judgment in other parts of her life.The Sporkful production team includes Dan Pashman, Emma Morgenstern, Andres O'Hara, Jared O'Connell, and Nora Ritchie, with production on this episode by Abigail Keel.Transcript available at www.sporkful.com.

Gail Simmons is a very cool human being—had to say that from the jump! While many know her best from Top Chef, Gail's career in food expands way beyond a judge's table. She trained at culinary school and went on to assist legendary food writer and columnist Jeffrey Steingarten. She also worked the line in busy New York City restaurants and is the author of two books, including her latest, Bringing It Home. We wanted to have her on the show to talk about her past in New York City restaurant kitchens and what we can expect on the new season of Top Chef.And, hey, this is our 200th episode! While this is simply a round number and that's it, Matt wants to acknowledge the team who helps bring the show to the feed many times a week. This show does not happen without cohost Aliza Abarbanel; our amazing producers, Shalea Harris and Pat Stango; our incredible editor, Clayton Gumbert; our amazing illustrator, Ellie Skrzat; and, most of all, all of you listeners out there. Thanks for tuning in each week. Thanks for all the messages on IG and the emails.
