Hi! I'm Kasae Fraser, the host of this podcast. I've been a professional chef for the last 11 years, working my way through different countries and kitchens, and I've landed in the UK.
I started this podcast because above all, I love hearing the unfiltered experiences that other Chefs have had throughout their career, the highs and lows of being in the hospitality industry, and the struggles that have ultimatley led them to where they are now. We have candid conversations about what its really like to be a chef, and explore what makes them tick.
We also have guests on that aren't chefs, but are a vital part of the industry, to hear their point of view about how our food system works, their role in it and how it all ties together.
