Week in Review
Sushi Boss, Pope of Peppers, and Lady Chefs
This episode of Week in Review covers the evolving role of female chefs in the restaurant industry, how to order sushi like a boss, “The Pope of Peppers,” and plenty of dad jokes. On “The Breakdown,” Jack and Erin talk to Lukas Volger of Jarry magazine on the upcoming panel discussion with Startout about food entrepreneurship in the LGBT community.
