Lori Midson’s new Chef and Tell interview with Justin Cucci, chef/owner of Root Down, has people talking.

From booyah:

this man gets it

From Lipster:

It’s interesting that he uses “pussies” as a derogatory term and then, in nearly the same breath, refers to all of the women who work in his kitchen as “pussy.” Classy.

From Hendo:

Best Chef and Tell ever…. finally a chef with some character.

And Cucci isn’t done yet. Watch for the next installment of Chef and Tell this morning. In the meantime, you can read past interviews here.
