Dave gives an introduction to today's guest, Chef Roy Choi, and runs through his resume. He then interviews Roy and the two old friends catch up, talk about Roy’s career path before starting Kogi, why "fusion" is a loaded word, and trying to age gracefully. Old war stories are shared, new revelations come out, and lots of laughs are had. Dave finishes the episode with an Ask Dave about salad dressing.
