This week I speak with Philadelphia chef Shola Olunyolo. Shola has carved out a creative niche in modern cooking instruction as a consulting chef. The Studiokitchen was created as a research and idea space to support his manufacturer partner and client projects. He uses contemporary cooking techniques to create increased value and high impact flavor. His Studiokitchen has exposed guests and clients to an entirely unique approach to dining by immersive exploration of various culinary concepts, global ingredients, and useful modern cooking technology. Shola just finished a month long chef-in-residence program at the Stone Barnes Center in New York with chef Dan Barber. While there, he prepared his native Nigerian cuisine, using the bounty of the Hudson Valley. We talk about this experience, as well as staging, cultural appropriation and classical cooking techniques. ========== Shola Olunyolo ========== Shola's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/studiokitchen/ Shola's Twitter https://twitter.com/Studiokitchen The Studio Kitchen Website https://www.studiokitchen.com/ ================ CONNECT WITH US ================ Get the Chefs Without Restaurants Newsletter https://mailchi.mp/fe0d8a0cc7a6/chefs-without-restaurants-email-list Visit Our Amazon Store (we get paid when you buy stuff) https://www.amazon.com/shop/perfectlittlebites?isVisitor=true Check out our websites (they have different stuff) https://chefswithoutrestaurants.org/ & https://chefswithoutrestaurants.com/ Like our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/chefswithoutrestaurants Join the private Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/chefswithoutrestaurants Join the conversation on Twitter https://twitter.com/ChefsWoRestos Check our Insta pics https://www.instagram.com/chefswithoutrestaurants/ Founder Chris Spear’s personal chef business Perfect Little Bites https://perfectlittlebites.com/ Watch on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHXxixMxjf05XxUIbz6ER-Q If you want to support the show, our Venmo name is ChefWoRestos and can be found at https://venmo.com/ChefWoRestos.
