-Philippe & Jackie Loustaunau of Arlington’s Pirouette, combine a full-service restaurant and a thoughtfully curated wine.
-Chef Scott Drewno is back in studio. His Fried Rice Collective with partner Chef Danny Lee, has some of the tastiest spots in town, like Anju, ChiKo and now the new breakfast hotspot, I Egg You.
-Chef Kyle Bailey, also back in studio. A partner and culinary creative genius with Long Shot Hospitality - Dauphine, The Salt Line - and the new gorgeously designed, Ometeo in Tysons Corner
-Chef Rubén García has never joined us in studio but we’re so glad her did! Ruben and Richie Brandenburg have opened The Square, an impressive new food market destination helmed by the restaurant, Casa Teresa
The best part of today’s show was the roundtable discussion at the end of the show on the status of the industry.
