She’s such a breath of fresh air KEEP THIS WOMAN AROUND. A chef in her own right but always eager to learn and to listen not to mention a great appreciation for the art of cooking.

You get the impression she knows much more than she says because she wants to listen to the guests.

It's nice to see Jean-Georges again and in another series that I like to watch. His Mise En Place video was the first Mise En Place I watch and it was truly mesmerizing to watch. The way Nyesha interacts and learn from these Chefs is really fun to watch. Looking forward to seeing more of this series

[@simpleshortquotes.4282]

Nyesha Arrington does this with NO ego and thats what makes it great.

[@rolandbullock6444]

As opposed to chef Noah 🤦

And no ego from Chef Jean-Georges or Chef Noah, just 3 people really enjoying themselves, sharing something they love.

Please keep Chef Nyesha as a cornerstone of your content- she brings expertise and context to this work without making it about her! Bravo Chef Ayesha!

This host is so good. Everything she is in is a joy to watch!

I second and third that emotion.

she knows how to get along with everyone. plus she's always so happy and positive and easy to be around

[@chrisp1543]

I agree with everything positive said about Nyesha, but can we also appreciate the wholesome relationship these dudes had with each other? Mutual respect in higher-end kitchens seems to be fiction otherwise.

[@calebtate6723]

Best host Eater has ever had. She's an extremely talented chef her self but has the humility to learn from others, openly and respectfully. Great looking food by JG and the executive chef!

I love how humble dishes such as a Milanese are given and treated with such respect, while at the same time highlighting how each component lends itself to complement the dish.

This is what a great host is supposed to be. Ask a few (right!) questions and let your guests do the talking. Very respectful, very skilled.

[@caiogarzeri7831]

That looks really nice! One thing though: "milanese" obviously does not "translate to" elephant ear. It just means "from Milan". Elephant ear is sort of a nickname for the dish. Italians in chat may confirm.

[@tweakypoppy]

Well, it obviously means Milan style in this context. Not a native from Milan.
