Esther's Kitchen, Bigger & Better Food and Loathing

Al and Gemini record an entire episode on location at the restaurant everyone is talking about this week, the newly opened Esther’s Kitchen. They’re joined by the restaurant’s top chef, and owner, James Trees. In addition to telling them all about his new digs, Trees reminisces about his early days in The Arts District, and reflects on Esther’s success to date. He also shares what’s next, and announces the name of the new restaurant that will be moving into the original Esther’s Kitchen space – an all-tasting-menu affair he refers to as “The Quentin Tarantino Film of restaurants.”
Also: UNLV’s Marc Sandoval previews the Viva Careers event aimed at anyone who would like advice on how to pursue a career in hospitality. And Al and Gemini tell us about recent visits to the new Cheongdam Food Hall, The Hard Hat Lounge, Sushi Tanuki, Anima by EDO, Piero’s and Hofbräuhaus.
Finally: How you can win a free dinner for two at Joel Robuchon, in a new contest from Neon Feast!
