Description
Rob Laing talks to the chefs creating the best plant-based food. Whether you call that “vegetable-forward”, “plant-based cuisine” or just good food, the trend is undeniable and goes beyond being vegan or vegetarian. Plant Gourmet talks to these chefs in detail on topics like running plant-based restaurants, recipes and menu development, food issues, health and diet, the environment, animal rights, ingredients, suppliers, the food scene, new technology, culinary and hospitality trends and more.

Find out how he's scaling Beyond Sushi while keeping the ethos of "a perfect bite, every time"
This episode features something completely different. Elizabeth’s Gone Raw is a Friday-night-only prix fixe raw plant-based restaurant in Washington DC. I talk to Elizabeth Petty, the owner, and chef Francisco Hernandez, sitting in the Federalist-era townhouse that houses the space. Francisco is a goldmine of techniques and tips for anyone trying to make high-end plant-based food.
I talk to Ravi DeRossi and Daphne Cheng, while sitting in Ravi’s restaurant Mother of Pearl in the East Village. Ravi made a bold announcement at the end of 2015: to turn his 15 restaurants and bars 100% plant-based. He reached out to Daphne to make it happen.
Scott is Director of Culinary Operations at Matthew Kenney Cuisine, working with Matthew to recently open Arata in Maine, 00+Co in New York, and Plant Food & Wine in Miami.
