The Life of a Chef: Guilty Pleasures and Inside Secrets with Nestor Fuentes


Listen Later

So long Solos! At least for now. This week, Katie is joined by a very special guest, temporary podcast host, and boyfriend: Nestor Fuentes! Nestor is a self-taught fine dining chef with an ambition of earning a Michelin Star. In this episode, Katie attempts to understand what it's like to be a chef, the role cultures play in food, and how someone with refined taste finds a new place to eat. Stay through the end of the episode to hear his recommendations of the best: Tacos, Vibe for a Birthday, Drinks, Vibe for a Date Night, and hands down best meal in Los Angeles. This episode is equal parts entertaining, and informative. Get it while it's hot!
