In this new podcast, Paul goes behind the curtain for an informal and informational chat with one of Chicago’s and the country’s most famous chefs: Art Smith.

How did Chef Art hit the big time while so many chefs dream of having the life and career that he has created in his own life. Well beyond the menu items of Reunion and even Chicago’s Blue Door Kitchen and Garden (tho you’ll hear about those too), this is the interview that allows Chef Art to share a myriad of stories from making dinner for legendary ballet dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov to Oprah, Nelson Mandela and so many more. Plus Chef Art lets us know who among the rich, famous and powerful sit at a particular table in his Blue Door Restaurant (hint: the list includes the Obamas).

What exactly is American Southern cuisine and how does it differ from New Orleans cuisine, his signature dishes, and do his kids eat Dad’s cooking?

If you are a fan of Chef Art, you will love this fun and casual conversation…..and you can find everything you need to know about the Chef at: www.ChefArtSmith.com
