The BanterThe Guys talk about the drive of hospitality and it isn't what some folks say it is. The ConversationsThe Restaurant Guys welcome writer Genevieve Yam to discuss the decline in quality of Honeycrisp apples. Genevieve, who has investigated this issue, shares what happened and how we can keep other varieties from following suit.The Inside TrackThe Guys have been fans of Honeycrisp apples since the 1990s and even gave them as birthday gifts. Genevieve's article about the apple's origin, rise and “crapification” intrigued them so they had Genevieve on to tell them about it.“Dr. David Bedford and Dr. Jim Luby, two scientists working at the University of Minnesota's fruit breeding program came across a tree that was actually slated for the trash. Bedford was extremely curious about this tree. He thought that it had not been given a fair chance and decided to do a little bit of research and what he did changed the course of apple history because what would have ended up in the trash ultimately has become one of the most popular apple varieties here in the United States,” Genevieve Yam on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025BioGenevieve Yam is a writer and editor based in New York. After graduating with a degree in politics and a brief stint in the start-up world, she enrolled in the International Culinary Center in New York City and cooked at Blue Hill at Stone Barns and Per Se.

LOAers, this is a bonus episode in EVERY way! But, we simply couldn't wait any longer to share this incredible episode 4+ years in the making! You all know Holli as well as Jeanna does, when Holli sets her mind to something she makes it happen! And, after meeting Nasim years earlier, Holli and Jeanna have been planning to make a trip back to NYC one day and interview Chef Nasim in Brooklyn at Sofreh. Holli experienced the magic of this incredibly passionate and powerful leader who had taken the NY food scene by storm and just knew her story was one that embodied what conscious creation as a lifestyle was all about! And badassery, absolutely! More about Nasim: Food is the language through which Nasim Alikhani best knows how to express herself. Her earliest and fondest memories are of staying indoors during the summer as a child, preparing foods and making jams and pickles with her mother. Coming from a tradition of strong women who are great cooks, she began cooking for large gatherings and parties at a young age. During law school while studying to be a judge, she found that her true passion was cooking for friends and classmates. It took Nasim twenty five years to realize her dream of opening a restaurant. In that time, she worked in various professions unrelated to food, did some ad-hoc catering, attended the International Culinary Center, interned in restaurants, and most difficult of all, pleased her twins' directing palates. Finally, in the summer of 2018, at 59, she opened Sofreh to acclaim. In our exquisite evening interviewing Nasim and enjoying a VIP front row seat to the magic of Sofreh - it's food, the talented and vibrant staff, and the heartbeat of the whole show, Chef Nasim - the LOA gals feel the New Yorker sums it all up best: “In her restaurant début, Nasim Alikhani's front-of-house style seems just as intuitive as her interpretations of a cuisine sorely underrepresented in the city.” The New Yorker By Hannah Goldfield. We hope you all enjoy this incredible interview as much as we did - and the sounds of NYC in the background are also a bonus!

In can often be difficult to stick up for yourself & your coworkers when you find yourself in a toxic and abusive work environment. But what do you do when the abuser is a renowned celebrity chef such as David Chang of Momufuku fame. In situations such as this, it can be extremely difficult, as the power dynamics can be so lopsided, both in power & resources. This is only magnified by things such as media access and the proliferation of non-disclosure agreements. To help shed some light on this pertinent topic, we are joined by Hannah Selinger -- acclaimed writer, certified sommelier through the Court of Master Sommeliers and graduate of the International Culinary Center -- who not only worked with Chang, but was brave enough to share her story by coming forward.
