On this week’s Naked Lunch podcast, co-hosts Phil Rosenthal and David Wild welcome famous chef and restaurateur Thomas Keller -- recently seen on "Chef's Table: Legends" on Netflix. As they write, Phil’s longtime friend comes to his house “for a very special and delicious Naked Lunch featuring our most elegant meal yet from Farm Shop. Chef Keller discusses his remarkable career from his first jobs in the kitchen to his groundbreaking success with The French Laundry: Join us for tasty stories about working on the film Spanglish with Phil, consulting on Ratatouille and his place in The Bear universe."
Note for readers here in Los Angeles: on the low-key, Keller is also one of the founders of the HiHo Cheeseburger mini-chain, of which there are five around town at the moment. They have more than just cheeseburgers, and in fact the reason I go is because they made a deal for the recipe of the delicious fried chicken sandwiches from great Willie Mae's restaurant in New Orleans. (Willie Mae's had a branch for a while in Los Angeles, but a terrible location and sadly closed. But joyously, the chicken sandwich at least lives on. That's to Thomas Keller.)
