Episode #130 - Giuseppe Tentori of GT Prime

This week, we are delighted to welcome a culinary artist who, despite his reluctance to embrace the title of "chef", is undeniably one of the industry’s most esteemed talents. Chef Giuseppe Tentori refined his culinary skills in some of Chicago’s premier kitchens before joining BOKA Group, where he led BOKA (the restaurant) and subsequently opened GT Fish & Oyster, GT Prime, and BOKA Catering. In our conversation, we dive into Chef Tentori’s experiences working with Charlie Trotter, explore the philosophy of allowing a protein to speak for itself versus enhancing it, discuss the pursuit of artful consistency, and much more.
