Freedom Rains - It’s Raining Freedom
Today's episode is about #TheBear. It’s on #Hulu, and so many people in the restaurant and bar industry have been talking about this show. I have to say I was late to The Bear. Basically, I don't trust anything on TV to get it right. There have been a few movies and a few tv shows here and there about the restaurant industry, and they miss it by a mile. You know every chef is spotless, the kitchen is super clean, no one is dirty, no spills. And that is bullshit. So I was skeptical of the show. Then I started to see articles in the Atlantic, Bon Appetite, and the New York Times about how #TheBear showed the manic and toxic environment that restaurants can have. And I got hooked on the show and binged it one setting. That’s how good I thought this show was and, more importantly, how I thought this show got so much right.
So today, I’m talking to San Francisco Chef Freedom Rains.
Freedom has worked at restaurants such as; Boulevard, Incanto, Flour and Water and now is Executive chef at Amano in Hayes Valley. And we get his take on the show and on restaurants in San Francisco.
