Chef Nicholas Romero stopped through town to help out in the kitchen at Ryan's new Nashville restaurant venture, Iggy's. During the episode, Ryan and Nick discuss the chef's many successful fine-dining ventures, reminisce on old times, and that one time Ryan accidentally worked at Disneyland.
Nicholas Romero has been the Chef de Cuisine at a number of well-praised restaurants over the years, including Los Gatos, CA's Manresa (three Michelin stars), Chicago's Smyth, and Grace (also in Chicago, where he won best chef de cuisine at the seventeenth annual Jean Banchet Awards in 2014 ). His culinary expertise and lifelong kitchen experience make for an interesting conversation.
