Arnold Myint: Writer, Chef, Dad, Gorgeous Drag Queen

from Food with Mark Bittman

The Nashville-based chef talks to Kate and Mark about how and why he finally feels recognized, how his drag has served as both a crutch and a hindrance—in the food world and elsewhere, and the priceless support he grew up with from his hippie parents (and why so much of what he does comes from that). Read an excerpt—and get some recipes—from Arnold's book, Family Thai, on The Bittman Project: https://bittmanproject.com/my-way-or-the-thai-way/Subscribe to Food with Mark Bittman on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen, and please help us grow by leaving us a 5 star review on Apple Podcasts.Follow Mark on Twitter at @bittman, and on Facebook and Instagram at @markbittman.
