A celebrity chef whose opening of two cafes in San Francisco's Union Square was hailed by city officials less than a year and a half ago abruptly closed both spaces. Tyler Florence had secured a $440,000 grant from the city as part of efforts to revitalize downtown. But did all that money the city invested go to waste? For more, KCBS Radio news anchors Patti Reising and Bret Burkhart spoke with KCBS insider Phil Matier.
On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with chef and restaurateur Daniel Shemtob, whose home burned down in the Palisades fire. He is also one of many local chefs teaming with José Andrés' World Central Kitchen (WCK) to feed those displaced by the fires and first responders. 'It's been crazy, dealing with the consequences of losing your home, losing all your stuff, dealing with insurance, finding a new place to live and [having] a pregnant wife who is stressed out,” Shemtob says. “[I'm also] a business owner, [wanting] to give back to the community; I think that that's the necessary step in rebuilding.” Shemtob is the all-star winner of Food Network's “The Great Food Truck Race” with The Lime Truck, as well as the chef behind Downtown LA's Hatch Yakitori, co-founder of Snibbs footwear company and author of “Food Truck Mogul.” Four days after evacuating from the Palisades fire, Shemtob returned to his food truck, where he was greeted by Tyler Florence, host of “The Great Food Truck Race.” “Tyler's kind of the people's chef,” says Shemtob, who worked with Florences on the line, serving 500 people in 90 minutes that first day. “We were serving delicious food … and I just felt that good energy of taking care of others; that felt really nice.” Because of WCK and the chef corp, setting up around Los Angeles, people are getting nourishment, but also engaging, talking and commiserating. “We're laughing and we're crying; it's all the things that you go through when you go through a shared tragedy with others,” he says. Daniel Shemtob shares his experience with the fires and how he was able to bounce back. He also talks about the role of food in healing, the good work World Central Kitchen and the chef's core is doing, and how people can help those impacted. “If you have the capital, donate; if you have the time, volunteer, and if you don't have either of those, just send a nice message to someone affected by the fires,” Shemtob says. “I have [received] so many messages… it's so nice to know that so many people are thinking about me or I'm in their thoughts and prayers; it feels like a warm hug, even from afar.” For those who want to learn more - whether you need help, want to help or both - follow @wckitchen and @damiel.shemtob on Instagram.

Tyler Florence is a Southern chef and Food Network star who, after 16 previous cookbooks, is finally releasing one that focuses on his passion for grilling. Tyler has been working in restaurants since he was a teenager in Greenville, South Carolina. Since then he's lived and worked in Charleston, New York City and, for more than a decade now, California – where he and his partners run several high profile restaurants. But as Tyler likes to say, “you can take the boy out of the South, but you can't take the South out of the boy.” And now in addition to his restaurants, a food festival tour, and his extensive run of shows on the Food Network, his new book rekindles his love of cooking outside. It's called American Grill: 125 Recipes for Mastering Live Fire, and it's fair to say Tyler is fired up about it. Tyler talks to Sid about why it took him a while to get around to this one, the way he discovered his interest in cooking at a young age, plus the absolute best way to grill a streak. He also explains why grilling is a chance to slow down and connect with the outdoors.
