Description

Chef Chris Piro opens up about how his unconventional journey—from growing up in the foster care system to cooking in Michelin-starred kitchens—led him to launch Again., a fine dining pop-up with a mission. In this episode, Piro shares how 100% of ticket proceeds from his intimate tasting menus go directly toward The Again. Foundation, which provides scholarships and mentorship opportunities to kids in foster care systems. He discusses the inspiration behind his story-driven menus, the power of sourcing and foraging locally, and how food can be used as a vehicle for healing, connection, and social impact.
