About this episode
From circling job ads in Time Out New York to running the kitchen at the massive, high-volume beast that is Buddakan, Chef Ed Harris has always been a study in contrasts. He was born in St. Lucia and raised in Guyana, yet built his reputation mastering French technique and Asian fusion. He is a Chopped champion who can break down a whole lamb, but today he is best known for his "Veganish" philosophy—a sustainable approach to eating that bridges the gap between high-end flavor and plant-based health.
In this episode, we unpack Ed’s journey from the "Ivy League" of dining at Jean-Georges to his current role as a budding entrepreneur. We discuss the massive culture shock of moving to Brooklyn as a teenager, the discipline required to earn a black belt while running a business, and the "Chef and the Wig Maker" dynamic where he serves as CFO for his wife's beauty empire.
