In today's episode, we sit down with Chef Kelly Whitaker, the owner of Id Est and a James Beard Award-Winner for Outstanding Restaurateur.
Chef Kelly shares how his travels abroad inspired him to launch Id Est and its acclaimed restaurants, including Basta and Denver’s Wolf's Tailor, named one of Bon Appétit’s top ten best new restaurants in the U.S. He also expanded his ventures with Dry Storage in Boulder, BRUTØ, and Hey Kiddo in Denver. Additionally, Chef Kelly founded the Noble Grain Alliance to promote domestically milled grains. He emphasizes that his driving force is using his “voice as a chef” to champion zero-waste cooking and sustainability practices.
Join us as we explore Chef Kelly's secrets to balancing a thriving career, his efforts to redefine the traditional kitchen environment, and the importance of keeping the "line cook mentality" alive
