Listen: Bringing Discipline Back to the Kitchen with André Natera of the Fairmont Austin

 

It’s not uncommon to see a chef behind the counter wearing a t-shirt and a baseball cap nowadays. It’s not particularly wrong, but it does reflect a change within the culinary industry, a change that’s shying away from some of the more traditional disciplines. And rather quickly, too.
