Aaron Crowder is Chef and Partner at Cervo’s in New York City where they specialize in cooking seafood inspired by Spain and Portugal. They join us to talk about their beloved neighborhood restaurants and their plans for Feast events (which includes sourcing a mobile rotisserie to pull off Fly-style chicken).

This week, we celebrate Oscar, who is wrapping up his summer internship at HRN. He's reported on space food, clean kitchens, and the science of ice cream for Meat + Three.

We're sad to see him go, but excited to see what he accomplishes next as he heads back to school in Colorado! He just has to make it through our trivia gauntlet as his final challenge as an HRN intern.
