Chef Deseree (Dez)'s culinary journey started after working in the finance sector in New York City in the early 2000s, before deciding to pursue a lifelong passion for cooking that had been simmering on the back burner for years. She came by it honestly – her culinary desire was instilled in her at an early age while growing up in a multigenerational family of talented home cooks in Taiwan and eating at night markets and street stands with friends. She went back to her roots, enrolled at the French Culinary Institute and from there embarked on a decade-long career that saw her hone her skills and climb the culinary ladder at some top New York City restaurants, including La Grenouille, Oceana and Locanda Verde. She moved to Vancouver, Canada in 2016 and stepped into the role of Executive Sous Chef at CinCin Ristorante + Bar, before joining the team at Old Bird as its opening chef in 2020 and then moving on to the role as executive chef and sales director at Fresh Ideas Start Here (FISH) during the pandemic. Chef Dez most recently competed on season 10 of Top Chef Canada and finished as runner-up. She is now the Head Chef at Blank Canvas Catering with the Joseph Richard Group. Join us as we chat about growing up internationally, international schools, family, following your passions, dreaming big, age being just a number, cooking, food, guilty pleasures, culture, people, competition, and of course, Top Chef Canada Season 10!

Our guests for The Weekly Grill are Nick Tamburo & Emma Conroy of Momofuku Nishi in New York and Bob Klein of Oliveto Restaurant & Community Grains in Oakland, California. Nick began his career in Boston, working at Flour Bakery, Savenor's Butcher and Market and Radius by chef Michael Schlow.

For Chef Jeremy Salamon of The Eddy in the East Village looking back was the best way to move forward. Jeremy’s worked in some of the top restaurants in the city, including Locanda Verde and Buvette, but it’s the lessons he learned from his grandmother that inspires his cooking today. She successfully fled Nazi-occupied Hungary and emigrated to America, and taught him the magic of borscht, paprikash and langos. Jeremy’s menus champion Hungarian cuisine, showcasing his own unique take on classic dishes and flavors from his ancestral homeland. Brooklyn’s Elke (née Kayla Graninger) has vocals reminiscent of PJ Harvey, and a guitar-driven sound that alludes to top 40 rock, doo-wop, punk and shoegaze. The cross-genre musical influences reflect Kayla’s upbringing, which spanned various cities and small towns across America. She landed in NYC in her late teens, and eventually discovered her distinct tone with the launch of Elke. Elke’s newest EP, Bad Metaphors, is a collection of break-up anthems inspired by her past relationships. Snacky Tunes is powered by Simplecast.

New York chef Andrew Carmellini — who designed the dishes in Simply Irresistible before setting off on the path that led to Locanda Verde, The Dutch, Lafayette, Bar Primi, Little Park and the soon-to-be-opening Leuca — celebrates The Blues Brothers the only way he can: Through the music, man. Your genial host Norm Wilner regrets not wearing sunglasses.

The idea of cooking as a career might have come to Evan Hanczor unconsciously. Evan spent summers strawberry picking and cooking with his family in Florida, and went to college at Tulane, in its gastronomically rich New Orleans setting. By the time he graduated and moved to Connecticut, Evan knew cooking was his calling, eschewing more schooling to take a hands-on position at The Dressing Room in Westport. Evan moved to New York City in 2009, working at Locanda Verde before nabbing a spot at Brooklyn’s Egg, where he mastered the many expressions of Southern cooking. In 2012, George Weld and Evan opened Parrish Hall, whose Northeastern culinary expressions and sustainable infrastructure earned Evan much praise. And while Parrish Hall closed, Evan returned to Egg with a richer repertoire and a continued focus on his team and community. Hailing from Virginia and the Carolinas (the heart of American breakfast country), George Weld settled in New York in his 20s and upon opening Egg at age 33, his Southern roots were made evident in the notable breakfast menu. Between the use of traditional sweeteners and ham implemented throughout plus local and artisanal ingredients, it is no surprise that George’s enterprise has expanded to include a farm and other eatery opportunities. Also an accomplished photographer and an author, his writing can be seen posted on the popular blog Edible Brooklyn.

On today’s episode of Eating Matters, host Kim Kessler interviews Chef Evan Hanczor and Chef Michael Leviton to discuss the roll of chefs in food policy; a roll that is becoming more and more relevant in the recent years. Kim first allows the chefs to explain how they got into food and how they grew in the industry. They then move onto discussions regarding the need for food sustainability and the various methods of encouraging this. Evan moved to New York City in 2009, working at Locanda Verde before nabbing a spot at Brooklyn’s Egg, where he mastered the many expressions of Southern cooking. In 2012, Brooklyn’s Egg owner George Weld and Hanczor opened Parrish Hall, whose Northeastern culinary expressions and sustainable infrastructure earned Hanczor a 2013 StarChefs.com Rising Star Sustainability Award. Michael Leviton has worked with some of the world’s top chefs and finest restaurants including: Joyce Goldstein at Square One, Alain Rondelli at Ernie’s, Gilbert Le Coze, Francois Payard and Eric Ripert at Le Bernadin, Elka Gilmore at Liberté and Elka, and Daniel Boulud at Le Cirque. In 1996, Leviton moved back to Boston to serve as Executive Chef at UpStairs at the Pudding. In February 1999, he opened Lumiere in his hometown of Newton, MA. In just a short period of time, Lumiere has become one of the best restaurants in the Boston area. This show was brought to you by Tabard Inn.     “When I learned to cook, there was no such thing as sustainability as it applied to food. It’s just that if you wanted to be the best chef, you needed the best ingredients” [6:30] —Michael Leviton on Eating Matters “Bootcamp was a really interesting program for me….Chef’s interested in sustainability, there’s an easy path in making an impact through your customers, through your supply train, through where you choose to buy, how you choose to serve etc. ” [14:30] —Evan Hanczor on Eating Matters
