Chef Gavin Kaysen: The Hard Truth About Success in the Restaurant World (S12/Ep.03)

Gavin Kaysen is a two-time James Beard Award winner, a former Bocuse d'Or competitor, and a true force behind Minneapolis’ rising culinary scene - but his story is about far more than accolades. In this episode, Gavin opens up about his early childhood influences and how a sandwich shop taught him the power of hospitality. He shares the story of a bold cold-call to Gordon Ramsay, and lessons he learned under Chef Daniel Boulud’s mentorship. He also shares how he’s passing on those lessons - mentoring the next generation of young cooks through Ment’or BKB, while supporting his team and community through his nonprofit, Heart of the House Foundation. If you’ve ever questioned how to build a meaningful life in food - or in anything - this conversation is one you’ll want to hear.
