Frank Brigtsen | Ya Gotta Eat #6

<p>In Episode 6 of Ya Gotta Eat, Robert St. John and Drew Wooton sit down with Chef Frank Brigtsen — one of the true gentlemen of New Orleans cooking — for a meal at Susan Spicer’s Rosedale Restaurant in New Orleans.Frank’s story sits at the heart of a defining moment in American food. He got his start at Commander’s Palace, worked side-by-side with Chef Paul Prudhomme, and was there for the early days that reshaped how the country thought about Cajun and Creole cuisine. From the first bite of blackened redfish to the “whatever it takes” hustle that builds a career, Frank shares the lessons, the people, and the moments that matter.We talk mentorship, work ethic, and the craft of doing the same dish thousands of times — and why, at the end of the day, the restaurant business is still about one thing: making people happy.Ya Gotta Eat is built on one idea:Food brings people together. Stories keep us together.As always: if we eat there, go eat there. Tip big. Support the places we visit.Pull up a chair and enjoy Episode 6 — because… Ya Gotta Eat!FOLLOW USInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yagottaeatshowFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/yagottaeatshowTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@yagottaeatshowBusiness Inquiries: yagottaeatshow@gmail.comLINKS▶️ Last Episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xcW4Y50LkJs🎙️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3vyLYdyS0Q4omwaNcqVCrI🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ya-gotta-eat/id1856003639❤️ iHeart: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-ya-gotta-eat-31583368</p>
