Chef Alyssa’s Kitchen was one of the first group activities Julia Landauer participated in once moving to Charlotte. The BYOB, communal cooking classes provide an approachable way to spend an evening cooking a meal, learning new skills, and meeting people. On this week’s episode of If I’m Honest, Julia speaks with Chef Alyssa’s Kitchen’s creators, Alyssa and Andrew Wilen. Chef Alyssa and Andrew share how their different backgrounds made them great business partners, how they were resourceful in crafting their classes to facilitate their limitations as a self-funded startup, and what popped up as a wife / husband team that they had to navigate. Chef Alyssa shares Golden Rule foundational tips for cooking, they both explain the importance of locally sourced ingredients, and they discuss which Charlotte businesses they partner with. Chef Alyssa and Andrew discuss what Charlotte is lacking from a culinary availability standpoint, share information about the Innovation Barn, and they give their favorite restaurant in Charlotte right now.
