  • PSA hardcore kitchen conversations

    High level, intelligent conversations about the many sides of our profession as chefs. Great for aspiring newcomers to learn from conversations that they won’t be privy to in a busy industry. Excellent interviews with the best people in the business hosted by a chef who himself has probably forgotten more than most will ever know.

    Thank you CHEFS PSA
