Chef Giorgio Rapicavoli on Italian cooking, stoner food, his plans to revive Eating House in Miami

Miami native chef Giorgio Rapicavoli (known for Eating House and, most recently, Luca Osteria) has been a James Beard Award semifinalist, a Chopped winner, and a perennial favorite of Miami diners. In this episode, Giorgio joins Mike Beltran to talk about the maturation of his cooking, moving beyond “stoner food,” their mutual admiration for the precision and consistency of restaurants like Hillstone, and his plans for the revival of Eating House.

Also, in the Patreon-only extended cut, Giorgio reveals the weird (and yet delicious-sounding) way he consumes pastelitos at Cuban bakeries.
