Lost in Mexico

Chef Enrique Olvera on Cultural Appropriation, Trump's Possible Reelection, and Tex-mex


Listen Later

In this special episode, I speak to Mexico's most famous chef, Enrique Olvera, owner of two of the world's top 25 restaurants—Pujol in Mexico City (ranked 12th) and Cosme in New York City (ranked 23rd). Chef Olvera opened up about a number of controversial issues, including the alleged cultural appropriation of Mexican cuisine by white chefs in the United States, the prohibitive cost of his restaurants for many Mexicans, and the possible reelection of Donald Trump. And he had a surprising take on Tex-mex! To check out a video of the interview, head to our Lost in Mexico YouTube channel.
