YEAHSI can tend to be 678 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:58,480 Speaker 1: not eater. Eater can tend to be a little tabloid O. 679 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 2: What do you mean by that? 680 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 1: I just feel like giving a little snarky for no reason. Okay, 681 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: I feel like infatuation is a little bit more like 682 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,719 Speaker 1: grounded in reality, right right. I like eter though, Like 683 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 1: I like their heat maps and like tells you like 684 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 1: where to go, like what's hot and at the time, 685 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,880 Speaker 1: like I think they're good for that.

We will see it 748 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 2: as vintage. I think it's a pure place I find 749 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:59,719 Speaker 2: in terms of reviewing, because even when I talk about 750 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: the PubL locations, the publications are like, great, you had 751 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 2: a great publicist who got you in the Eater list 752 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,880 Speaker 2: of ten best new restaurants in New York.

It's not particularly cool to people. 757 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 2: I love the app is on my phone. I'm obsessed 758 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:22,720 Speaker 2: with Yelp. 759 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: See when I click on something online and it takes 760 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: me to Yelp. First of all, it's not on my phone. 761 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 1: So it makes me like you have to download the app? Yeah, 762 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 1: and I just get like, really, maybe that's what it is. 763 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 1: It takes me to like a place where I don't 764 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:35,359 Speaker 1: have access to it. 765 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 2: Yes, It's kind of like when the Brick was at 766 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 2: home and you're trying to open Instagram and then you're like, 767 00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:43,440 Speaker 2: I'm done with you. I'm done with Give Yelp a shot. 768 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I will. I sort of just feel like it's 769 00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 1: like opening up like the Facebook comments, like like from 770 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 1: like my aunt, you know, like I'm like, h. 771 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:55,600 Speaker 2: I get off Yelp. 772 00:35:55,800 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: No, I'm lovely youse.

Twelve minutes for a cup of macha. 789 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:48,319 Speaker 2: But there was It wasn't like we're specialty macha place either. 790 00:36:48,360 --> 00:36:50,600 Speaker 2: It's like you have it in a squirt bottle that 791 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 2: you already fixed and you're gonna put it in there 792 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: with milk bank.

They are pissed off. It's it's a 805 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 2: thing there. So how did you get so into food? 806 00:37:34,800 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 1: I I mean, I always like after I moved to 807 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 1: New York, because now I was not exposed to a 808 00:37:43,000 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: lot of like interesting food. I mean, they have a 809 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 1: delicious like that New Mexican food. It's incredible and it's 810 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 1: one of my favorite things and I miss it all 811 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 1: the time. But like I just didn't have and it's 812 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,600 Speaker 1: something like Indian food didn't exist. I just wasn't exposed 813 00:37:57,640 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: to it, Like my family never went. And when I 814 00:37:59,560 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 1: came to New it was like this great melting pot 815 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 1: of you know, an incredible culinary scene, and so like 816 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 1: I just my world was opened up.

And I met a friend who at a 824 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:37,280 Speaker 1: dinner party who told me this idea about a cookbook 825 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,040 Speaker 1: she had, and we ended up becoming friends, and she 826 00:38:40,160 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 1: ended up becoming just like we were cooking partners, and 827 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: like she had gone to culinary school and she would 828 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:46,759 Speaker 1: just teach me like great skills, certain life skills, and 829 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,759 Speaker 1: we ended up developing recipes together and that turned into 830 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:53,120 Speaker 1: a cookbook years later. And so that was sort of 831 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 1: like my introduction into like the culinary world. I was 832 00:38:57,160 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: also like asked to host to James Beard Award to 833 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,680 Speaker 1: few times, which was really cool. So I became friends 834 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:06,319 Speaker 1: with chefs, and I just sort of became padmaclocks. Mee's 835 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:09,239 Speaker 1: a really good friend of mine, and so I just 836 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: I was sort of invited into this world of like 837 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 1: fancy chefs in the culinary scene, and I just I 838 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,720 Speaker 1: just really respect them so much. You know, they're artists 839 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 1: and their own in their own way, and they work 840 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,719 Speaker 1: so hard, and I I just admire them a lot. 841 00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:29,880 Speaker 1: So I when this I I when Sony came up 842 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 1: to me about a podcast, was they had this idea 843 00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:35,719 Speaker 1: to do something in the culinary world. And one of 844 00:39:35,760 --> 00:39:37,439 Speaker 1: the ideas was like me taking people out to different 845 00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,319 Speaker 1: restaurants and having conversation over a meal, or is like 846 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,719 Speaker 1: me making a meal at home with someone. I was like, 847 00:39:42,760 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: that sounds like a lot. 848 00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:44,800 Speaker 2: Of yeah, and then who's going to clean it? 849 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:47,360 Speaker 1: And I was like, I to the thing where like 850 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 1: we just go out. 851 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. 852 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 1: So that's where the idea for the podcast came. And 853 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 1: it's really this, that's the concept. It's just yeah, it's 854 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 1: just a conversation, but it happens to be for a 855 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,799 Speaker 1: meal and I go to a different restaurant every single time. 856 00:39:57,800 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 1: We've never repeated the restaurant. 857 00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,239 Speaker 2: So I've ever said yes to doing a podcast sooner 858 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 2: than when I was. I know, we haven't been able 859 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,879 Speaker 2: to get it on the way. I was like yes, 860 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:09,920 Speaker 2: and then also being like, are we gonna get to 861 00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 2: do this soon? Because that's my jam. I love to 862 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,760 Speaker 2: eat out and I have no qualms. I I'm cooking 863 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: more now because I have time, and it's really nice 864 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,880 Speaker 2: to get to cook for myself. But cooking for one, 865 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:24,319 Speaker 2: it's a lot of and it's it's sort of like 866 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: a cost benefit analysis is in play there where I'm like, 867 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:31,280 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have to clean up all of this, yeah, 868 00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 2: and it has to be worth it. 869 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,120 Speaker 1: Do you ever have dinner parties? 870 00:40:35,480 --> 00:40:38,120 Speaker 2: I want to have more dinner parties. I would like to. 871 00:40:38,320 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 2: I hosted for Christmas this year. I did a bad job. 872 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 2: But I hosted for Christmas? 873 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: A bad job? Did you need it? 874 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 2: I was making cocktails. I might have already been a 875 00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:52,840 Speaker 2: little drunk myself, okay, making cocktails for my guests, like, 876 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:55,239 Speaker 2: who wants to drink? I had no like cocktail menu 877 00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 2: in mind, But I'm like, I have every spirit you 878 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 2: could ever want, and I have decent mixers. But I 879 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 2: was like, who wants a drink? And then my ass 880 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 2: put the ice in the cup first and then was 881 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 2: pouring them. No, no, no, no, sorry, that would make 882 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,560 Speaker 2: more sense. I was putting the beverage in the cup first, 883 00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:22,040 Speaker 2: and then spherical ice cube prop into the glass, and 884 00:41:22,080 --> 00:41:23,719 Speaker 2: I knew better as I was doing it. I was 885 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:28,200 Speaker 2: maybe just nervous to be hosted. I was like, and 886 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 2: I have, like the measurement for cocktail, the little the 887 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 2: little what is it even called? 888 00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 1: Like a measurer? 889 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 2: A measurer? Why don't we have to have specific words 890 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 2: that sure, the measurer. 891 00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:45,920 Speaker 1: The policeman of the alcohol. 892 00:41:46,719 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, and I have that, But instead I was 893 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,560 Speaker 2: using my little like here's a tea spoon thing like 894 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,000 Speaker 2: I didn't know why I was, I don't. 895 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 1: Even to that is you just do a batch cocktail. 896 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 2: That's what I was thinking afterwards, like last week, and 897 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 2: that's months later. I'm like, you should have just done 898 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,760 Speaker 2: a batch And it's like this is what I'm offering. 899 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 2: If you want something else, you need to go somewhere else, or. 900 00:42:07,719 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: If you're fancy can get you just hire a bartender. 901 00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 2: Well, Jesse, I'm not.

I could. I 905 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 2: don't think I could have. Maybe I could have gotten 906 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,120 Speaker 2: a bartender. I just didn't occur to me. There's so 907 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 2: many things that didn't occur to me with taking drinks. Yeah, 908 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,680 Speaker 2: does someone else you hire a bartender for your or do. 909 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,960 Speaker 1: A batch cocktail? I mean I don't drink anymore, but 910 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:39,640 Speaker 1: when I did, I would like I was actually like 911 00:42:39,719 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: really proud of like I made a great martini. So 912 00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: I was like happy to do that for people. But 913 00:42:45,680 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 1: then I was like stuck behind the bar. And if 914 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 1: I'm also making the dinner, it's like I can't one 915 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 1: of the other. Yeah, and you just didn't had to 916 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:52,440 Speaker 1: learn how to make the cocktails. 917 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 2: Is he good? 918 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,359 Speaker 1: I mean he learned how to be good?

Thank you for 1165 00:54:07,440 --> 00:54:09,920 Speaker 2: asking if I ever ran a half marathon. The people 1166 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:12,840 Speaker 2: would never know if you if I didn't set you 1167 00:54:12,920 --> 00:54:16,759 Speaker 2: up for said ask. Okay, I do I love this 1168 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,200 Speaker 2: notion that you're hosting dinner parties? How does one go 1169 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 2: about doing this? Like, I know it seems rudimentary, Yeah, 1170 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:29,200 Speaker 2: but like, are how are you curating the room? Because 1171 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 2: I'm sure you have so many, so many kinds of 1172 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:33,799 Speaker 2: friends from so many walks of life. How are you 1173 00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:36,200 Speaker 2: curating the room? How are you deciding what you're serving? 1174 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:40,600 Speaker 1: Okay. I do try and pull from different friend groups 1175 00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 1: so that people can meet with another, but that's tricky 1176 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:45,480 Speaker 1: because sometimes you know, people don't necessarily mix. 1177 00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 2: Well. 1178 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:49,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I have a good system down, like you know, 1179 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:51,840 Speaker 1: people all kind of know one another now, and I 1180 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:53,399 Speaker 1: try and like mix it up so it doesn't feel 1181 00:54:53,400 --> 00:54:56,040 Speaker 1: like it's the same people are always being invited. So 1182 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:58,080 Speaker 1: like I like to always think about my head, like 1183 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:01,319 Speaker 1: is there a guest of honor? And then building around them. 1184 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 1: It's like who would this person enjoy being around? Like 1185 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 1: making it about them even if they don't know it's 1186 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:08,800 Speaker 1: about them. Yeah, that's all secret. 1187 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 2: That's so cool. 1188 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:13,400 Speaker 1: And then as far as a menu, obviously you need 1189 00:55:13,440 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 1: to ask everyone's dietary restrictions, which is so fucking annoying 1190 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,600 Speaker 1: if you don't. 1191 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 2: Take. 1192 00:55:23,160 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: I do try and like have something in case someone 1193 00:55:26,719 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 1: you know doesn't need to be like, you know, an 1194 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 1: optional or at least like a lot of vegetables for 1195 00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 1: them to try. But cookbooks are my best friend, you know, 1196 00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:38,640 Speaker 1: just picking out things like it's a uh, cookbooks that 1197 00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,200 Speaker 1: are like vegetable based are great for side dishes.
