This week on the podcast, we have Chef Travis Milton in the building. Chef Travis is the culinary director and executive chef for Nicewonder Properties in Bristol, Virginia, and is essentially the engineer of the Appalachia food scene. Chef Travis talks to Chef Alysia about his intro into the food world stemming from his first encounter with fettuccine alfredo at a Wendy's when he was a kid. (Who knew Wendy's sold pasta?) Also, in this fun-filled episode, we get an insight into the burgeoning Appalachia food scene, we hear about the vital components of Chef Travis' refrigerator, and he shares quite possibly the most delicious-sounding late-night snack; here's a hint, it's much simpler than you might imagine an executive chef makes. Be sure to check out this episode!

On this week's episode, Chef hangs out with digital creator and all-around content specialist, Tinx. During this episode, Tinx shares stories of growing up in England with American parents and the types of foods that influenced her childhood, specifically her family's Italian and Lebanese heritage, and how that shaped her palette to this day. Chef and Tinx get into how moving to northern California for college changed her life due to the arrival of Mexican food to her diet (she never had Mexican food in England) and how that cuisine still rules supreme in her life. Finally, to all of our dessert enthusiasts, we have something for you too; from the way Tinx describes her favorite desserts to the fact that she has to have a lunch dessert and a dinner dessert every day, you'll love this episode and what she has to say.

This week on the podcast, we have the honor of going on a true audio journey when Chef Erik of the Los Angeles Mission joins Chef Alisa. Chef Erik gives us a glimpse into how he became a chef feeding thousands of people every week, and his path is definitely one with a couple of turns. From his time as a child learning how to make cinnamon toast to his crash course in Creole-inspired cuisine, Chef Erik always had a natural inclination for food. He highlights that he did not fully embrace becoming a chef until he went on an “extended vacation” and started making the best candy wheels in the land, Mr. Chew's Fantastic Fookies. This episode is full of gems, lessons, laughs, and food; you don't want to miss out!
