Matt Carter: Be Prepared

It's long been the Boy Scout motto and it's a personal mantra for Chef Matt Carter. In this episode, we learn Carter grew up in Arizona. He now owns and operates highly regarded Valley restaurants: Fat Ox, The Mission and Zinc Bistro, each exploring their takes on Italian, Spanish, and French cuisine. Carter admits that while he needed some guidance in his youth, he always wanted the next promotion in the kitchen, so he focused on being prepared and learning a lot. Now enjoys mentoring others. Carter walks us through some of his personal favorites at his restaurants and tells us how he may have broken some rules to get his first job in the kitchen.https://www.chefmattcarter.com/
