The Meals That Made Me

On the premiere episode of The Meals That Made Me, Adam chats with Evan Funke, a two-time James Beard-nominated chef based in Los Angeles who is known as a culinary storyteller and master of the old world techniques of handmade pasta.

Evan relives some of his most beautiful and emotional food memories that have influenced his life and career. From studying historic handmade pasta techniques alongside nonnas in Bologna Italy, to bringing his career-defining pasta dish to American restaurants for the first time - these are the meals that made Evan Funke.
