Sure, you'd expect those who dedicate their lives to food enjoy trying new things, but everyone has their preferences, and we all have a list of things we just don't like the taste of. Some cooks can't stand seafood, others hate certain spices - there are even chefs ( like Anthony Bourdain) who don't care for dessert. As for Bobby Flay, his pet peeve lies in the world of legumes, namely, lentils.
The significance of a chef penetrating Hollywood's Walk of Fame isn't just a glowing "attaboy" to the industry. It's a recognition of food as art in the modern playing field - and, by extension, a recognition of chef as artist, and (sometimes) as celebrity. Still, Flay is far from the first chef to tread into the territory where their food itself becomes on-par with their name as a brand.
When Bobby Flay sat down to talk with us here at Tasting Table back in 2016, we talked about a lot of things, from advice for those wanting to follow in his footsteps, to which of his many creative dishes was the biggest source of pride. We also talked about his favorite food cities, and he had three that he said were doing the biggest and brightest things in the food world: New York, Los Angeles, and Rome. Clearly, it's good to be Bobby Flay.
I recently dined at Bobby's Burgers, a fast-casual burger spot by Bobby Flay in Atlantic City. It felt a little expensive at $30 for a burger, fries, and a soft drink. However, the meal was delicious from start to finish.
