In the first segment, Andy talks with Food Network star and Kentucky-born chef, Damaris Phillips. They talk about Damaris’s first Eat Y’all Chef Camp experience, touching on some of the highlights that have made a lasting impact on her.
Along the way, chefs and consumers alike will gain a deeper appreciation for great, local meat after Damaris shares her unique perspective on beef that she developed after marrying a vegan. Having grown up in Kentucky, she explains how and why Kentucky of all places is making its mark and becoming a rich culinary hotspot.
The second segment is for every chef itching to make their own unique mark in the culinary world, as Paco Garcia Executive Chef of Foko Restaurant in Lousiville, Kentucky, shares about his new venture launching a restaurant at age 26 after starting as a dishwasher only 9 years ago.
Listeners will also hear about Paco's unique passion for Mexican-Southern fusion cuisine, how “play” is at the center of his menu, and why he has a whole new appreciation for meat after attending Eat Y’all Chef Camp.
