Unreasonable Hospitality: Inside the World's Best Restaurant

from Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street Radio · host Milk Street Radio

Will Guidara transformed Eleven Madison Park from a struggling two-star brasserie to the number one restaurant in the world. His secret? Unreasonable hospitality. From DIY beaches in the dining room to sledding in Central Park, Will shares stories—some of which inspired scenes on FX's The Bear—about his climb to the top. Plus, Luke Fortney examines restaurant gap relationships; and Emily Monaco describes the art of the French picnic. Listen to Milk Street Radio on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify
