In our tenth episode, we got to sit and chat with fellow Michigander, Chef Jared Bobkin. Chef Bobkin is the Executive Chef for the brand new Feast, hoping to open soon in Chesterfield, Michigan. He is the Creative Director for Flavored Nation, a traveling food festival that celebrates each state's most iconic dish. He competed on seasons 15 & 17 of Fox's Hell's Kitchen, earning one of Chef Gordon Ramsay's coveted black jackets, and supports For the Love of Lulu, West Michigan Bulldog Rescue. 

Chef Jared is a very charitable person with true passion for the culinary industry. He was very easy to talk to and has a lot to say! (In a good way!) We truly enjoyed our conversation about his culinary start, current state, and of course, being on Hell's Kitchen!
