This is the best podcast! I learn so much every episode. Thank you for sharing your time and so much about the restaurant industry. Amazing show! If I had two days in Chicago, I’d eat at every single Joe Flamm restaurant!
I could listen to Adrienne and Joe all day long. Upbeat and fun.
I am a longtime fan of top Chef and also always enjoy both Adrienne and Joe when I see them on other shows as well. I find both of them very likable and personable and easy to listen to. Their guests are very interesting and the conversations are always insightful. I totally give it 5 stars, but the only constructive criticism I have is that the knife sharpening sound effect is really off-putting and unnecessary. Please get rid of it!
I am most certainly not a chef. I’m a dad cook at best, and now that my children are grown and I’m an empty nester, I probably don’t cook as much as I should. That said, I’ve always been fascinated by chef culture. I watch the movies and documentaries, loved The Bear, enjoy fine restaurants, and probably know way too much about Michelin stars for someone who has never actually eaten at a Michelin star restaurant.
So I guess I’m a chef culture Fanboy from afar, and I really dig this podcast. The... more

The show combines insider perspective from two former Top Chef competitors who host a weekly conversation about restaurant life, culinary craft, and the evolving food industry.
