french laundry

Great interview Justin!

thanks for doing this Mr. Khanna.

I've been a long-time listener to both of your channels. I appreciate all of the content you have put out over the years and share your videos to my line cooks and Sous. If this is the starting point for a new era of your channel, I am thrilled. Great episode and excellent topics for us chefs who are working on continued growth.

One of the recent questions I saw answered was "is there a certain way to calculate ingredients for a garum or miso?" and the answer was "If trying something new, start with a reasonable looking recipe and then scale off their ingredient list to the final batch size I have in mind."

A lot of this resonates deeply. Great content, I'll have to check out the book.

I agree with your side. There's so many factors if someone is good or not. To me, I just care if they are "hungry", because that means they are willing to go that extra step to learn. And in my experience, everyone whobis hungry ALWAYS ends up as one of the key players on the line.

🤡 clown & co.

Saw his book in China!

Valuable information thank you

"Enjoying the microcosm that the macrocosm made possible" to refer to the activity of sipping coffee while learning about the cosmos was so eloquently put.

Nah you aren’t the rapping chef. No my rapping chef 😂

Much respect for him taking the club route. Great opportunity. Same move as Alex Lee the original chef de cuisine from Daniel when it was three Michelin stars, and amongst the best restaurants in the world.

waht was the verdict on your mise shoes? any feedback?

Brilliant !!!

techniques over recipes is how every trained cook learns ... how is this atributed to this guy as if he came up with the concept ... its what french cooking is all about and what made it famous ... americans love taking credit for other cultures work

Respectfully, where is that video series breakdown of The Menu?

Embrace the suck

As I am expanding into brunch, I greatly appreciate this advice, as well as the advice you personally had on our hot seat session a couple months back. Can't wait for the new episode!

What a great interview !!

29:54 all too relatable lmao. I was the only one at my previous job who would come up with specials and features for the week besides the head chef (I was only a line cook) and just basked in the compliments of my fellow cooks. I was then asked to explain a dish to a table and suddenly all my intimate knowledge of the dish and ingredients turned into "it's an umm pork belly with seasonings and a puree and some micro green form a garden that's like my Garden"😂

Very true words

"B.S. Radar" is real.

Dude, awesome stuff. I've been doing this for 28 years, and there's always room to learn more.

Justin, I don't know how your content continues to be criminally underrated. I share it with all of my friends in the industry and it helps me as a chef owner as well. Keep up the great work! This interview with Eneko was interesting and outside of the box. I look forward to more interviews and insightful videos!

Good episode 👍🏻

This is great. Enjoyed listening to this!

Love these kinds of podcasts :)

Would it be incredible if a white person amplified white entrepreneurship?

It's not... CERTAINLY NOT about the glamour and glitz. It's hard work and you have to love it to make it work.

ONLY 88 VIEWS?? We gon get you up bro, keep uploading

One of the first things I was told in a service at Alinia was “chef, you need to be using both hands.” Cool to see the numbers to back it up but it’s true that this is stuff you can’t “unsee” after you learn it. Feels terrible not to be efficient lol

Big fan Justin love ure kit videos I really take notes of these vids

Stoked on the Central video coming up! I'll also make an argument for the Balloon being an isolated plating. Very singular focus on that dish. Though you did break down components that I hadn't really considered. I thought it was a bit more straight forward then that.

The value you're dishing out is truly insane. 10/10 video concept. I love the idea of training to plate properly.

Which is why nobody wants to work for Gordon Ramsay! I've been in business for myself since I was 10 years old and I've never felt compelled to yell at anybody. If you can't get through to somebody with a reasoned, rational explanation, then it's time to let them go.

1st

I felt this on so many levels. I was an audio engineer/music producer before I was a chef, but the recording studio I worked at flooded back in 2016. If it wasn’t for the restaurant/food service industry I genuinely have no idea where I’d be today. Can’t wait to listen to the full version otw to work tomorrow!

𝕡𝕣𝕠𝕞𝕠𝕤𝕞 ☀️

really needed to hear this rn, especially as someone that's gone mostly without a mentor for most of their career, yet I've been, and currently still am, in a position of mentorship. that last bit about keeping up in a kitchen operating at a high level of standards, and the feeling that results from that Conscious effort is crucial! 🙌🙏 that feeling has been my "moral compass" if you will, even when I'm working in a lax kitchen/bakery. Thank you for sharing this.

This man needs to do an audio book of his work, if it doesn't exist yet. Such an amazing and educational episode like always

That's a great line, to paraphrase, "learning is more than information". I feel like that's an easy thing to take for granted that's also often overlooked. It can also be applicable to education systems, etc. in that interdisciplinary kind of way you've mentioned previously. This was a great interview, thank you for sharing these. I learn a lot from your content.

it’s been amzing seeing you smash it Justin. i’m so pleased we crossed paths. Totally agree with taking lessons from other industries, and the longevity of 'value-first' rather than just cheap funnel-hacky type sales tactics. Thanks for sharing your wisdom in this podcast

Great intro sir! My twin brother is that dude, he seems stuck in a big mud bog. Just can’t allow himself to form and pull off an actionable PLAN! It’s rooough lol!

Love your videos!!!

How are you?

My mannnn
