This will sound like a sweeping statement but this episode with Tamara Reynolds of the fabled supper club “The Sunday Night Dinner in Astoria” and creator of Van Alst Kitchen is one of my favorite episodes in the history of Effin B Radio. She has had a fascinating career, endless stories and is truly hilarious and basically my new best friend. In addition to being a Cookbook Author and professional food stylist for film and television she was a host for Cooking Channel’s “Unique Eats” and we talk about getting fired, our mentors and so much more. Don’t miss it.
