  • He Blinded Me With Science

    What if I told you that everything that you do in a restaurant has been already decided for you? Of course you wouldn't believe it, there's no possible way that science has helped determine how to control the public with lighting, music and even the placement of where things are on a menu, there's no possible way that you are being played every single time right? 

    Today on Lets Talk About Chef the science, story and magic tricks behind restaurants.

  • Chef's Who Have Fed People.........People

    This past week the internet exploded with the fake story that a restaurant in New York was somehow legally serving human meat to customers. Once common sense returned and internet rage subsided curiosity led us down a rabbit hole of grisly details about two times not too long ago that a chef did actually serve people.........people

    This episode is tastefully done with no explicitly described scenes of murder. We may be talking about horrible people but we need not become one ourselves.
