Summary
This week, Jason is joined by cookbook author, private chef, and food lifestyle writer, Gaby Dalkin! Gaby started “What’s Gaby Cooking” as a hobby blog back in 2009 just before returning to school for culinary. She was hired as a private chef during the first week of culinary school and has since gone on to write three books with a fourth on the way, launching her own products, and shows no sign of stopping. Gaby gives insight on how she got hired as a private chef, what goes into creating her cookbooks and the publication process, how to make the best decisions when grocery shopping, and the importance of having creative control. Gaby also reveals how she landed products in Williams Sonoma, why her website is the epicenter of everything, which recipe of hers has the best track record of impressing others while still being easy to make, and her top three restaurant recommendations to splurge at. Which of her business ventures brings in the most revenue? How much money goes into each cookbook Gaby releases? What goes into being a private chef for a celebrity client? What is her favorite deal she has done?
Gaby reveals all of that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
