Hosted by Kerry DiamondProduced by Catherine Baker and Jenna SadhuEdited by Jenna SadhuMusic by Tralala, “All Fired Up”Chef Juliana Latif and her team at Zou Zou’s are turning out some of the best restaurant dishes in Manhattan, from the dip towers to the Strawberry Shirazi salad with cucumber and mint, Smoked Cherry Baby Lamb Chops, and Kataifi Cheesecake. She got her start at a young age, helping out at her parents’ specialty grocery shop, Tangiers in West Hartford, Conn., then went on to attend culinary school, intern at Disney World in Florida, and rise to the level of sous chef at the Michelin-starred NoMad in Manhattan. Juliana, Zou Zou’s executive chef, joins host Kerry Diamond to talk about her family (she’s the youngest of 11), how cooking for others became her love language, the story behind her tattoos, and why she’s happy being a low-key culinary personality.Thank you to OpenTable for supporting this episode.
