The Chef's Cut

Chef Ayesha Nurdjaja on Kitchen Pet Peeves, NYC Reservation Hype, and Becoming the Newest Food Network Titan


Listen Later

This week Adrienne and Joe are joined by Ayesha Nurdjaja, Executive Chef of Shuka and Shukette in New York City. She tells us all about her recent debut as the newest Titan on Bobby's Triple Threat. Plus, we discuss:

  • Kitchen Pet Peeves: Dirty floors, painted nails, and not saying hello

  • Fork It or Forget It: Zesting lemons… the right way?

  • Review Review: Showing up without a reservation at a busy restaurant (and then complaining about it)

  • The truth behind NYC reservation hype (is it bogus?)

  • Training with Bobby Flay and how Ayesha found her confidence to star on the Food Network

  • Walk In Confession: a triumphant story of serving the puree that almost went horribly wrong
