We’re taking it slow with special guest Danny Childs on this episode of Delicious City. Danny is the founder of Slow Drinks, specializing in foraging ingredients for world-class cocktails. You’ll wonder what you can pluck from your own backyard to use in the kitchen after hearing this episode.

  • Danny explains how his new book will help you discover the deliciousness growing all around us, and how to forage and ferment so that herbs and produce don’t go to waste
  • We hear Danny’s origin story, moving up the ranks from a server at Chickie’s and Pete’s to an in-demand botanical bartender. He also talks about his travels to South America and working with indigenous populations on their farms
  • The gang discusses their favorite brands of mayo and dream soda flavors
  • Best Bites include a few of mind-blowing vegan and veggie dishes and a next-level omakase experience
