The Restaurant Guys' Regulars
Alton Brown Offers Food for Thought
The Banter
The Guys talk about a common practice that is dubbed “too hospitable.”
The Conversation
The Restaurant Guys catch up with Alton Brown while he is on a bus in the middle of his Alton Brown Live tour. They laugh about culinary mishaps, debate using the title chef and elaborate on Mark’s term “restauranting.”
The Inside Track
The Guys and Alton found common ground on the desire and benefits to being a regular in an establishment.
“ I want to be a regular. I don't need the new shocking experience. What I love is being able to walk in on a night when I do not have a reservation. And the maître d’ sees me and not only gets me a table, and gets me my table. And the drink that I like best comes without me ordering it.
I will tip until I bleed to death!” Alton Brown on The Restaurant Guys Podcast 2025
