S3 Ep 24: Coming up under top chefs to her own restaurant: Chef Yara Herrera; Hellbender

Chef Yara Herrera joins us this week, the powerhouse behind one of NYC's coolest and most delicious restaurants; Hellbender. A first gen Mexican-American & fine dining alum, Yara has taken everything she learned at Spago, Providence, Momofuku Ko and flipped it into something entirely her own. She's all about honoring her roots while rewriting the rules. Listen in as we talk cooking with Martha Stewart, interrupting David Chang during a private moment, why ketchup is torture and the pressure of opening her first restaurant, that came with quite the pivot. @yaraherrerayara Mentions: @sobremasanyc @sobremasatortilleria @summerfallsake @ribkingnyc @empire_bbq@smoke_sweats @spagobh @katsuyabysbe @providencela @majordomola @davidchang @seanalexgray  @rolosnyc @marthastewart @lindustriebk @decades.pizza @frankelsdeli @innout @claud_nyc @joshuaj88  Welcome to the irreverent & unfiltered world of PUT IT IN MY MOUTH, a podcast that fearlessly explores the underbelly of the hospitality industry.
