EPISODIOS ANTERIORES

It’s a little wild that we made it over 200 episodes without Chef Tony Mantuano on the podcast. The longtime chef and true legend behind Spiaggia and a partner in The Purple Pig, Tony has helped shape Chicago dining for more than four decades, mentoring an extraordinary generation of chefs along th…
This week on Joiners, we sit down with Chanita Chayaluk, chef and owner of TAAN, a new and exciting Thai restaurant in Humboldt Park. Chanita came to restaurants by way of a totally different career: she was working in education and mental health when the pandemic prompted a kind of “now or never”…
Chef David Choi has always been a hustler. As a teenager in St. Louis, he skipped enough school to rack up hundreds of absences while tracking down celebrities at hotels, getting their autographs, and selling them on eBay. A few years later, he worked four jobs to save up for a BMW,  only to sell i…
This week on Joiners, we sit down with Dominique Leach, chef, pitmaster, entrepreneur, and founder of Lexington Betty Smokehouse. Dominique’s story is a wild one: culinary school, Chicago kitchens, legendary mentors, brutal bosses, huge opportunities, hard lessons, and more than a few moments that …

This week’s guest arrived in Chicago during a brutal winter storm. Jose Sosa was sixteen, newly arrived from Mexico, spoke very little English, and needed a job. An uncle helped him get in the door as a dishwasher, and from there Jose built a remarkable career: eighteen years with Gibson’s Restaura…
Devon Quinn had a biology degree and a standing offer to train mine-hunting dolphins for the Navy in San Diego. He turned it down (the water was too cold, the gig was unpaid) and ended up in a kitchen instead. Today he's Chief Culinary Officer of The Paramount Group and the chef behind Michelin-rec…
This week, Tim and Danny sit down with Katie Renshaw, founder of Bar Bambi and 2019 U.S. World Class Bartender of the Year. Katie traces her unlikely path from software development into Chicago’s cocktail world, the bars and mentors that shaped her, the intensity of competition bartending, and the …
Call him crazy, but Chef Darnell Reed is a hospitality aficionado who believes the customer who walks in five minutes before closing deserves the same care as anyone else. Chef Reed started cooking professionally at 16 and spent nearly two decades working his way through Chicago’s hotel kitchens, e…
