In this episode we have a special collaboration with Curtus Chinn/The InfatuAsian Podcast to eat great food, build community, and have a very special live episode!
We invited chefs and past guests to participate in a friendly challenge called the "Chinatown Recipe Club" at our favorite bookstore On Waverly's clubhouse space. Each participant was randomly assigned a protein and challenge and were tasked with cooking and presenting a publicly-available recipe.
Cooking for us was 2x James Beard award winner and cookbook author, Kristina Cho. Co-owner and part-time cook at Little Aloha restaurant on Taraval, Winchell Chow. Program manager and cooking instructor with 18reasons, Elise Hayashi, using a recipe from Linda Tay Esposito. Cooking instructor, dumpling master, and entrepreneur, Eddie Lo. And last but not least, home cooks and sister duo, Nicole and Sam Lugtu, using a recipe from the Marnee Thai cookbook.
Thanks to all who participated! Thanks to Curtis’ helper/interns: Cathy, Christy, Megan, and Rico! Thanks to On Waverly for hosting us.
Please enjoy this live chat with each chef and the dish they presented. The vibes were impeccable in person, we hope they’re good for you too.
