Podcasts about restaurants

This is such a great conversation with Max Shapiro, co-host of the Air Jordan podcast and a guy who knows what he likes. We've enjoyed Max's very active, and sometimes blessedly candid, Instagram reviews of restaurants around the world. While he's based in Los Angeles, his recent trip to Spain, particularly a dozen stops at legendary restaurants and new places around San Sebastián, got us interested. Max shares an action-packed road trip around the Basque region, including stops at Gresca, Casa Julián, Asador Etxebarri, and Kaia Kaipe. And why you should most certainly not book at Arzak. He also tells what is good in his hometown of Los Angeles including Dunsmoor, Budonoki, Horses, Shunji, and Muse. Read more about Air Jordan and the Los Angeles podcast scene.

DTLA was hollowed out and vacant for much of the 20th Century. . .but the arrival of Staples Center heralded a renaissance. Restaurants, bars, lofts, studios, apartments, even hotels were filling the area with vivaciousness & energy that hadn't been felt in 70 years. But then came COVID, and the wave of crime & homelessness, which still hasn't abated. Today, more than 33% of businesses and residences are vacant and legacy restaurants are closing weekly. So what happened? This is the Demise of Downtown L.A.

Dook Chase describes his childhood growing up inside the iconic Dooky Chase's Restaurant, where the back of house was his playground and the kitchen was always buzzing with energy. He discusses how his early work bussing tables and washing pots led him to fall in love with cooking under the watchful eye of his grandmother, Leah Chase. The chef shares how Hurricane Katrina reignited his passion for the family business, inspiring him to leave his finance career and help rebuild the restaurant as a symbol of hope for the New Orleans community. Dook explains how culinary school in Paris gave him the technical foundation and confidence to complement his family's traditions, helping him both preserve and innovate Creole dishes. He reflects on the meaning behind opening Chapter IV, a restaurant honoring the fourth generation of his family, where he experiments with modern twists on Southern classics. Dook celebrates the deep influence of the strong women in his life, including his wife Gretchen, and shares his excitement for Family Recipe Showdown, a new show that celebrates culinary heritage and cultural connection. He highlights the storytelling at the heart of the series, where families bond over beloved dishes and cook under pressure for host Octavia Spencer and her lineup of celebrity guests.

A Michelin star is one of the highest accolades in the culinary world — yet Las Vegas, despite its ever-evolving food scene, hasn't seen the Michelin Guide return since 2009. In the absence of that global benchmark, local voices have stepped in. The Las Vegas Review-Journal's newly released list of the top 100 restaurants of 2025 aims to spotlight the city's culinary talent. Restaurant reporter Johnathan L. Wright joins co-host Sarah Lohman to explore how restaurants are rated, how they decide what's “best,” and whether these rankings still hold meaning in today's food culture.

Burgoo Restaurant's Justin Joyce on 24 Years of Comfort Food & Vancouver's Evolving Food SceneWe had an amazing conversation with Justin, owner of the four Burgoo restaurant locations in Vancouver, who joined us despite dealing with a power outage and a sick dog. What started as a discussion about his restaurants quickly evolved into a deep dive about the challenges facing independent operators in today's market.The Burgoo StoryWe learned how Justin's path to restaurants began with a detour from university. Originally headed to study English literature at the University of Alberta, he stopped in Calgary and met a mentor who offered to lend him money to open a restaurant in Vancouver. At 21, with no stress and plenty of optimism, he made the leap and opened the Funky Armadillo in the early '90s before eventually developing the Burgoo concept in 2001.What struck us was how Burgoo started as purely comfort food - originally serving only soups and stews in two sizes: "giant and enormous." They didn't even have plates when they first opened, serving everything in bowls. No sandwiches, no appetizers, just 10 soups and 15 stews. The menu has evolved dramatically over 24 years, finally adding french fries just this past year after resisting for over two decades. Check out Burgoo here: https://www.burgoo.ca/Thank you to Field Agent Canada for sponsoring the podcast: https://www.fieldagentcanada.com/
