Listen "How Genie Kwon and Tim Flores became Chicago's favorite restaurant couple"
Episode Synopsis
Kasama means "together" — and that’s how chefs Genie Kwon and Tim Flores have earned their Michelin star. Not to mention their unlikely pairing of a bakery with a fine dining Filipino restaurant also earned them this year’s James Beard award for Best Chef in the Great Lakes Region. In this episode, we learn why diners are waiting more than two hours to taste what the Kasama team is creating.
Plus, Crain’s Ally Marotti reports on a Chicago burger merger and why McDonald’s is pushing profits by taking away self-serve drink stations. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
