Episode 206: Gavin Kaysen (chef, and author of At Home)
11/07/22 • 82 min
Gavin Kaysen, the chef behind Minneapolis' Soigne Hospitality, just published his first cookbook, At Home. While in New York City for a series of launch events, he found an hour to sit down with Andrew and discuss the book, his still-young career, and some milestones along the way. Gavin and Andrew have interviewed for books and online pieces in the past (see here, and here), so have a long history that facilitates a very open, honest, and fun conversation that we know listeners will enjoy.
And in this week's Tech and Restaurants segment, brought to you by BentoBox and Clover, Yannick Benjamin, of New York City's Contento restaurant, which has been lauded for not only its food and hospitality but also for its devotion to accessibility, discusses making your restaurant website as accessible as possible.
