14. LEE SCHRAGER: Where to eat and what to order (anywhere).

Merry Christmas, On the Side listeners! To celebrate the holiday, I’m joined by the incredible King of Wine & Food, Lee Schrager–author, fried chicken expert, breakfast enthusiast, and creator of the Food Network & Cooking Channel South Beach and NYC Wine & Food Festivals. We’re celebrating all things FOOD & wine today, so if you love restaurants, travel, food-- this episode is like a global tasting menu for your ears. I loved hearing about Lee’s personal favorite breakfasts, from the supremely high-end to the best grease in the biz… plus, we get into what it’s like to travel the U.S. in search of the perfect bite of fried chicken, and what YOU need to do to get the BEST of the best. 

I’m answering this question at the top of the episode: What are your thoughts on plant-based “meat” alternatives?
