WARNING - The audio for this one is REAL bad. Sorry about that. We had some serious technical difficulties even getting this bad boy recorded, but we hope that doesn't stop you from listening to our FABULOUS conversation with Avishar Barua (@avishar) from Top Chef Season 18! Avishar was a total blast to chat with. He was super down to clown and was extremely patient with the issues we had at the beginning of the interview. Plus he's very honest and he thinks we are a very funny podcast, maybe even better than Pack Your Knives. ----more---- Subscribe for new episodes every Monday.

The next generation of culinary artisans are changing up the industry. These artisans have a whole new approach to reaching and satisfying the next generation consumer. In this podcast we will explore chefs and artisans from around the world diving into their story and passion. In this episode of Chef AF, I chat with Chef Dawn Burrell about her incredible journey as an Olympian to finding her passion for a career in culinary, becoming a finalist on Top Chef Portland and her James Beard Award Nomination. Burrell who traveled the world with the USA's Track and Field team says it was a great way to spend her early twenties, she was traveling and there was airport and hotel time sprinkled with culture and great food. Her traveling played a role in her love of food and she says, “You know when you eat the food of the people, you are learning about their history and their culture without even knowing if you're in tune in that way.” Burrell says that her love for food came from her grandmother and aunts. I ask Burrell about culinary becoming a full-time career for her and she shares that during a difficult time in her life when she was facing retirement from track and field, she needed to find something else that she loved to do. She says, athletes have blinders on and you can lose sight of other interests and things you can do in life. She says, “So I had to quickly figure out for myself in my adult life and I landed in culinary, I really remember I had the fondest childhood memories of food and I always wanted to know more.”Burell has been extremely busy as a chef since culinary school. She was the sous chef at Uchiko, the executive chef at Kulture, she had a James Beard nomination, and became part of Lucille's Hospitality Group opening the restaurant Late August, a culinary collaboration with Chef Chris Williams. Burrell also talks about two industry non-profit organizations she supports, I'll Have What She's Having, a women-led non-profit, raising community awareness and funds in support of better health and healthcare in the food and beverage industry and Lucille 1913, a conscious community collective that is building a vertically integrated ecosystem to combat food insecurity and waste; creating training and employment opportunities in traditionally under-resourced neighborhoods; and empowering communities to discover a self-sustainable livelihood through food.To hear Chef Burrell talk about being an all star guest judge on Top Chef Season 19 and her recipe for Salmon with Buttermilk Broth & Gai Lan, plus find out why she decided on culinary school, check out this episode of Chef AF “It's All Food” or you can listen at Spotify!

The one with the Eliminators from Top Chef Portland.

We hang with Top Chef Portland's fan favorite, and Las Vegas' own, Jamie Tran! Also along for the ride is this week's co-host Mercy Baron. She's host of the "All Forked Up" podcast, a certified master barbecue judge, author of the Baron's Barbecue Beat website, and administrator of the Las Vegas and San Diego Food Fanatics pages on Facebook. Jamie tells all about Top Chef, including her reluctance to appear, her comeback from elimination and why she tried to accept elimination instead of seeing a fellow competitor leave the show. One hint: those rushing-to-beat-the-clock moments are real! She also shares the inspiration for the Vietnamese-inspired American comfort food she serves up at her restaurant Black Sheep.

Are you team Margaret and Melissa or team Jennifer and...? Beverly Hills premiers and we love the glitz and glam! Do you fully believe Kyle's nose job story? Is $20,000/month a good friends and family discount? Do you like the new housewife? We were all equally shocked by Kathy's childhood dental procedure stories?! RHONY was full of LOLz this week while the ladies continue their Hamptons getaway. Did Ramona donate her plasma? Is Sonja jealous of Lu? Does Eboni deserve an award for understand the minds of both Ramona and Sonja in this episode? Back in the world of Beverly Hills we discuss the premier of Shahs of Sunset. We are happy that everyone seems to be making up, because their negative energy is toxic. Do you stan Reza and MJ's friendship vibes? Do you believe that Mike had his iCloud hacked? (no is the only acceptable answer). We finally have an episode of Below Deck Sailing without a Sydney/Gary/Alli storyline and it was refreshing...up until the point where we meet the new guests. Does JL need medical attention? How do you think Dani handled the news? Heavenly is in true Heavenly form and is stirring the pot in Married to Medicine. Should Heavenly and Kathy Hilton team up for a Dentist Drama spinoff? Ryan lands the listing for Marc Jacobs, but the house goes from fab to drab when all of the lighting and furniture is no longer present. Do we love Ryan's strategy for selling this listing? It's restaurant wars week over at Top Chef Portland! Kokoson was the clear winner between the two, and Maria takes the individual win for the challenge. We say farewell for now to Sarah who gets sent to Last Chance Kitchen. Listen with us and Let's Talk Bravo!

Chef Shota Nakajima is our special guest Top Chef Season 18 - Portland Follow Chef Shota Nakajima on Instagram @chefshota Top Chef - Tune in Thursdays at 8/7 central!  bravotv.com/top-chef On Instagram @bravotopchef From a story by Tom Sietsema of The Washington Post - The Search for America's Best Food Cities: Portland, Oregon Imagine a city where no one honks their horn and drivers pause mid-block to assure pedestrians safe passage from one sidewalk to another. Picture an urban landscape painted in rivers, forests and mountains — Frontierland as if created by Alice Waters. Envision a part of the world where waiters write “Albion” before “strawberries” on a chalkboard menu to flag a local treat, taxi drivers tag the restaurant you're going to when you simply say the address (“Pok Pok!”), breakfast and brunch are practically civic duties, an entire bookstore is devoted to matters of home and garden, and some of the Thai cooking rivals Chiang Mai's raciest. Welcome to Portland, as in Oregon, the land of milk and honey — also coffee, tea, beer, wine, game, berries, crab, salmon, ice cream in flavors lifted from food trucks and olive oil that chefs compare favorably to Italy's liquid gold. Dubbed Stumptown, a nickname acquired in the mid-19th century when logging outpaced the full clearing of trees, Portland is one of America's best food cities. It is also the home base for Season 18 of Top Chef. It is were we find our very special guest, Shota Nakajima. He is the Chef & Owner of Chef/Owner, Taku. Born in Japan and raised in Seattle, Shota Nakajima began his culinary journey at age 16 working for a highly acclaimed sushi restaurant. At age 18 he moved to Osaka, Japan to learn the art of Japanese cuisine from Michelin Star rated Chef Ya-sa-hiko Sakamoto, an experience that greatly changed Shota's perspective on hospitality, cooking and his approach to food. Developing his own meticulous and imaginative culinary detail, and a stringent demand for high-quality, Shota set out to expand Japanese cuisine in the United States by bringing a fresh perspective on approachable Japanese comfort food through his two restaurants, Taku and Adana. A James Beard Award semi-finalist for three years running, Shota seizes every opportunity to get outside and forage or fish, taking advantage of the abundance of wild goods in Washington's mountains and waters.

Edward Lee is the acclaimed chef of several restaurants in Kentucky and the DC area, most notably Louisville's 610 Magnolia, where he first made his mark on Southern cuisine almost 20 years ago using ingredients such as gochujang and soy sauce aged in whiskey barrels. He won a James Beard award for his 2018 book Buttermilk Graffiti and he was nominated for an Emmy for his work hosting the PBS series Mind of a Chef. Lee is also the co-founder of a remarkable nonprofit called The Lee Initiative, which during the pandemic has been supporting restaurant workers, struggling farms and other communities in need. Catherine and Juliana talk to Edward about how growing up in Carnarsie, Brooklyn—where there were very few Korean Americans—shaped his palate and his identity. He also shares stories about Clay, the hip Korean restaurant he opened in New York in the late ‘90s, his recent guest appearance on Top Chef: Portland, and his newfound mission in life to help others.
