Episode 147: Our Holiday Spectacular featuring Dan Kluger, Allison & Matt Robicelli, Erick Williams, and Harold Moore

Andrew Talks to Chefs

We're closing out 2020 in style, with three hours of entertainment to keep you busy until we return in January.

First, a quartet of our favorite guests--Dan Kluger, Allison and Matt Robicelli; and Erick Williams--check in from their respective home bases. Dan discusses his great new cookbook Chasing Flavor; Allison & Matt join Andrew for the first Shelter en Place review since the summer--a look at the holiday classic Christmas in Connecticut; and Erick phones in from his Virtue Restaurant in Chicago to reflect on 2020.

Then first-time visitor Harold Moore discusses his life and career, including an under-the-radar chefs potluck holiday party he used to host, which was Andrew's favorite night of the year.

We'd love if you followed us on Instagram.
