We just couldn't bid adieu to our Top Chef Roundtable podcast miniseries for the year without having a little bonus episode with this season's breakout star, Deseree ("Dez") Lo.
The Vancouver-based chef quickly became a favourite of our podcast co-hosts and viewers alike. First, for her vibrant personality, followed swiftly by her creative approach to many of the Top Chef Canada Season X challenges.
In this bonus episode, Dan Clapson chats with Dez about how humour keeps her balanced in the kitchen, her approach to authenticity, what it feels like to be Top Chef Canada's eldest runner-up in the history of the show, and much more.
The Eat North Podcast stream can be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts and more.
