Episode 104: Author Spotlight – Shari Bayer of Chef Wise - Life Lessons from Leading Chefs Around the World
Manage episode 387079173 series 2838989
For this podcast, we have an author, publicist, and podcast host who recently published a book that has so many incredible and unique perspectives from an astounding number of industry-leading chefs from around the globe. The author, Shari Bayer, based in New York City, is someone who is a lifer in our industry, or at least industry adjacent, as she has been a publicist for many of the highest-achieving chefs in America, and she's done that by creating genuine relationships with the chefs that she's met over the years.
Most recently, she added author to her title with a book that is as much great reading material as it is great lessons from many of the world's leading chefs as they share their own perspectives and methods when it comes to the duties of a chef.
Here's what was discussed:
- Why this book is a dream project of Shari's
- The early jobs that got her interested in the restaurant industry
- Working for Charlie Trotter in Chicago
- Her first foray into the world of restaurant PR with some industry legends
- She breaks down the reasons why your restaurant needs or does not need a PR company
- Working with Jim Lahey of the respected Sullivan Street bakery
- Some of the common threads that she sees through the different chefs she interviewed for the book
- Many chefs opened up to her about the mistakes they made along the way and shared those life lessons with her readers
- The pressures on chefs today that were not there 15 to 20 years ago, and why so many chefs feel they need to open more than one restaurant
- Eli is extremely impressed with the roster of chefs that she was able to put together for this book
- The importance of cooking for not only great chefs but also great leaders who are going to mentor you while you grow, and why you need to give them your all, and they will help you succeed when it is your time
- The wisdom of Chef David Kinch
- How easy it is to get from NYC to Philadelphia, and why more people don't take advantage of it
