BU BÖLÜM HAKKINDA
This week, we sit down with Bailey Sullivan, executive chef of Monteverde Restaurant & Pastificio and a Top Chef: Destination Canada finalist, who seemed almost pre-programmed for a life in restaurants: raised at Goldyburgers, her family’s Forest Park burger joint, and glued to Food Network and Top Chef as a teen. She walks us through a career that runs from early gigs at Noodles & Company and Black Dog Gelato to a formative internship at two-Michelin-starred Acadia, ramen battles at Yusho Logan Square, a trial by fire at Parachute, and an eight-plus-year climb through every rung of Monteverde’s kitchen ladder before taking the top job. Along the way, we talk: what Top Chef doesn’t show you, no-heroes kitchen culture, fugazi tiramisu, and so much more.
