The Eater Upsell Season Two Teaser

The Eater Upsell: Smart talk and shameless gossip with the food world's most interesting people. Hosted by Greg Morabito and Helen Rosner. The Eater Upsell is the flagship podcast of the award-winning national food publication Eater. In each episode, hosts Greg and Helen sit down with celebrities, chefs, moguls, and artists for freewheeling conversations that start in the world of food, but almost always end up veering off the road, covering everything from seeing Padma Lakshmi naked, to the Italian concept of sprezzatura, to the trials and tribulations of fame and business. Ultra smart, seriously funny, and always lively and intimate, the Eater Upsell is one of the best interview podcasts out there.

Restaurant Business Online +2 tastewise +2 One thing I’d add: no matter how many digital upgrades or design changes take place, the core of any good menu will still be clear communication of value, flavor, and experience. And if you ever need appliance repair or maintenance to support this kind of food-service innovation, check out Appliance Repair Cedar Rapids IA https://appliancerepaircedarrapidsiowa.com/ for reliable local help.
