Madisonians Take the Spotlight on New Food Shows

from City Cast Madison · host City Cast

Two Madison culinary talents are about to hit the big time — reality TV style. Vintage Brewing Company executive chef Jake Lawler will be making his television debut on “Yes, Chef!”, a new high-pressure cooking competition judged by culinary legends Martha Stewart and José Andrés that premieres April 28. Meanwhile, local software developer Daniel Freiburger is whipping up sweet treats on “The Great American Baking Show.” Host Bianca Martin chats with one of our favorite food pros, food and culture editor Lindsay Christians of the Cap Times, about what it means to see Madison’s food scene represented on a national stage. Plus, we take a look back at other Madisonians who’ve been cooking on our screens recently. Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers. Wanna talk to us about an episode?
