Katie talks with her co-host of Food Network’s, The Kitchen, Geoffrey Zakarian. Prior to becoming one of the most well-known television food stars, Geoffrey had a successful career as a professional chef in New York City. He shares his fascinating story of apprenticing for free at his first big restaurant job and climbing his way up to the top as head chef of his own 3 star restaurant.
He recounts his days of opening a restaurant with Ian Schrager of Studio 54 at the Royalton Hotel, which became the “it” restaurant for CEOs, magazine editors, fashion designers, and celebrities. Geoffrey tells incredible stories of bold face names, like cooking a rare burger and mashed potatoes every day for Anna Wintour, his super-secret French fry trick for Calvin Klein, Karl Lagerfeld’s obsession with his salmon tartare, and opening a restaurant with Madonna.
Geoffrey is known for his fashion sense, and touches on why it’s so important to be the best dressed in the room, plus airplane etiquette, and his love of espresso.
Join Katie and Geoffrey for a fun-filled conversation that brings back all the nostalgic memories of old New York.
