Description

Longtime listeners know that Claud restaurant is one of Andrew's favorite places in New York City. And that Penny, the same group's seafood-counter restaurant, has also been a rousing success. In a rare interview, chef of both restaurants, Joshua Pinsky, sits down with Andrew to discuss his personal and professional background, and related subjects, such as whether his distinct, stripped-down style fits into a larger culinary movement.


THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:

Andrew is a writer by trade. If you'd like to support him, there's no better way than by purchasing his most recent book, The Dish: The Lives and Labor Behind One Plate of Food (October 2023), about all the key people (in the restaurant, on farms, in delivery trucks, etc.) whose stories and work come together in a single restaurant dish.

We'd love if you followed us on Instagram

Please also follow Andrew's real-time journal of the travel, research, writing, and production of/for his next book The Opening (working title), which will track four restaurants in different parts of the U.S. from inception to launch.

For Andrew's writing, dining, and personal adventures, follow along at his personal feed.

Thank you for listening—please don't hesitate to reach out with any feedback and/or suggestions!
